From your other post, I see that the .htaccess file was in error and I corrected it for bot traffic. I need to see the .htaccess files in order to detect anything. The one in the root and the one in the folder where smf is installed. I can still get to your root site so I am guessing that the issue is with the one in the smf folder. In the meantime ther is a backup .htaccess file in your folder that you can place back as the original. The backup files have the date/time appended to the end of the file name.

The "Gone" error message indicates that a bot blocking is in error and is blocking the user-agent of the browser. This comes from an incorrect entry in your spider table that was employed when you installed 3.5.00.

Replace your .htaccess file with the one that I have sent and you should be ok. I will look through your .htaccess file and see what entries that you need to remove.
