Why did I get a page that says “The page you’re looking for was not found”?

If your community toolbar is currently active and you got to a page with the message “The page you’re looking for wasn’t found” next to the logo and name of your toolbar publisher, it means the following: Your community toolbar has detected that the page you were navigating to was not found, so you got to an alternative, more helpful Search page instead of the generic page usually displayed (called a 404 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/404_error) or DNS error page). Your search automatically appears, so you can just click Search to try again. If you’d rather, you can type in a different search. To disable this feature, please click the Toolbar Options item in the drop-down menu under your toolbar’s logo, open the Additional Settings tab, and clear the check box next to the text Fix “page not found” errors. Please note that this feature may not be available for all community toolbars.

A unique id is used solely for the purpose of knowing how many people are actively using the toolbar and it is not transferred along with any specific usage information. This unique id is not transmitted during any other use of the toolbar.
All statistic information is securely stored on Conduit.com and is accessible only to us.
