CNET on Mac - page not found
Possible solution: changing first preferred language in browser.

It might fix the problem if you choose English as you first preferred language in browser settings. When requesting a page, browsers sends list of preferred languages for content. (For example, based on these settings Google redirects you to your local Google site.)

Changing preferred language:


Firefox 5: Tools->Options->Content->Languages.
Chrome: wrench-icon->Options->Under the Hood->Web Content->Languages and spell-checker settings  (instructions)




It might be working on your virtual machine if default Windows (in VM) language was set to English. Then browsers would also choose English as your default content language.



When my default language was set to English or German I had no problems navigating cnet sites. After setting my first preferred language to Lithuanian I was getting same errors as you.

It appears that this is internal cnet bug.

Tested on Windows XP Firefox 5, Chrome.
