links to my wordpress blog return a 404 error

Hi there,

I am having issues with blog post links returning a 404 error.

Background
Platform - Wordpress 2.9.2
Front Page - Static Front Page
Blog Page - is located on a separate page titled blog (.com/blog)
Permalink setting - /blog/%postname%
Wordpress/blog address - currently the wordpress address and the blog address are the same url address.

I have the site set up so that every post also appears on twitter and facebook.

Problem
If I click on the twitter/facebook/html link to any post, I get directed to my website, but end up with a 404 error.
The visitor can see the correct blog post but the page is a 404.
I'm not sure what is causing this error....

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers

Simon

Hmmm, it's hard to say what's going on without knowing the URLs of the posts as well as the location of the links on twitter and facebook, and without actually clicking on the said links.
