Welcome to the Q&A Forum

gotcha. Ok so the best action is to correct these on the https site and mark them as fixed on the http site on google webmaster?

Also out of those 3800 404s about 3500 of them are coming from here http://gameon.timesonline.com -> for some reason there is a redirect to our site and whatever link they have, we get hammered as a 404. see http://d.pr/i/v3Rr

I am in contact with them to stop making that redirect. But how do I handle this after it stops? If I click mark as fixed... the 404 will still occur if google goes to those url paths. This is troubling to me on how google operates in this case since its an external link thats causing it.

But why would google webmaster account http pick this up? I would assume that it would be picked up as a 404 on the https site, not on both, since there is a 301 redirect on the http site.
