    Default Broken link from Tell a Friend button

    I recently did a check of all links on my site. I found multiple broken links, and am in the process of correcting them. I never realized it could be as difficult as it is.

    One problem link is the tell a friend button. It sends you to a page not found.

    I have it set that only logged in users can use it.

    Any suggestions?

    Does it work with the setting so that guests can use it?

    It doesn't work at all.

    In the admin/email settings, I have it set so only registered users can access it to cut down on the spammers using it.

    The only way I found that it didn't work was by creating an online sitemap, and it had a link checker with it.

    I logged in, and tried the button...and got the page not found page.

    It is the mistkits link in my sig

    Can i just get rid of it if I can't get it to work? That won't break anything will it?
