With a litte help from a co-worker I figured it out. I feel really stupid for not getting it earlier, but incase you are in my situation someday here's what happened.

I use frames because in our reference pages we need a static menu accross the top of the page for quick access to all information. The top frame would load correctly, but the bottom one wouldn't.

A co-worker suggested I try to pull up the page without using frames (I should have done this already...). Even though it's obviously going to give the same 404 error I decided to try it.

It immediately redirects the URL to the old link for the stylesheet being used. The link was for "/folder1/style.css" instead of "/folder2/style.css". The URL was supposed to be going to "/folder2/page.asp" but was redirecting it to "/folder1/style.css" to give me the error.

I don't know if anyone will understand my explaination, but that was the cause. I simply referenced the correct folder in the stylesheet reference and it worked.
