RE: I think your validator may be faulty ????

Sure, well I am not sure how the validator does its job , but some company's like google look for your 404 page error, and if it is not found  , they assume you are having software to hardware compatibility issues and are by passing them by not running any security at all, 
  why they want it to say 404 file not found error, and not like ''oops you have gone to a page that does not, or no longer exists click here to go to the home page" I don't know, I was told this is a problem on my godaddy portal www.projectalien.com , but I also found customers liked being able to find a exit to take them to where they needed to go and not leave them at a dead end page.
  well if the ASP.NET programming rendering is correct could it be a compatibility issue with the Bios, and hardware ? Ive seen alot of strange things happen, when hardware is made to do things  it can't.
  My main web site is a Microsoft office live, and well it has errors on blank pages, and since I'm not allowed to alter their base code, they remain.
  But of all the crazy things I have 1 server not secure and 1 that is, why they did this I do not know either, but hey that's office live, http://alien-computer.org  is the same as https://alien-computer.org .
  but hey 1 time I went to edit my site and the page editor was all in Japanese, when I wrote to office live support, they asked me what the problem was, so unless my site is limping around like a wounded dog I really don't bother them any more.
  I know its all your programming when you host of rented servers, but I would make sure the listed servers are application friendly to what your trying to run.
  this is the response when you go to trainingon.net/1234

  I think we have established that this is an ASP.NET rendering issue rather than a validation problem. 
   
  I’m not sure what you mean by saying the web server is not secure; in what way does this WHOIS entry mean it’s not secure.  It is not running secure sockets with a certificate if that’s what you’re referring to? But I we knew this anyway, and I’m not sure what made you bring that up as an issue really? Perhaps you could illuminate.

    Well I usually just observe, the goings on and say nothing, but I do see a problem here, and not with the validator, after looking at your web site and the server programming it says it uses, it would seem your web site server is not secure acording to WHOIS domain database, I do know this can screw up google ownership verification.

    But, the bottem-line here is, if your renting a server, and its not sitting in a room in your building, where you can controll how its used, and what all goes into and what comes out of it, well then just say '' bloody hell thank you TUCOWS '', lol

    here is what is reporting on your web site, from the regesry data base.

The parser isn't translating anything. The server is returning
different content based on the declared User-Agent. If I request that
page with a Mozilla User-Agent header, it gives me XHTML 1.0
Transitional with various CSS. If I request it with a Lynx User-Agent
header I get a non-CSS version of some sort instead, which does in
fact include that text.
