This is a "clean URLs" problem:

http://toknowmyself.netfirms.com/user fails.
http://toknowmyself.netfirms.com/?q=user works.

Clean URLs support is not configured correctly on your new site. Probable causes:

- Drupal's .htaccess file is missing or has been edited in a way specific to the old domain name. Upload a fresh .htaccess file. (Filenames beginning with a dot are usually hidden and you may need to configure your FTP program to show them.)

- Apache is ignoring .htaccess files on your new site. Look for an AllowOverride None line which applies to your site's directory in your Apache configuration file and change it to AllowOverride All

- mod_rewrite is not enabled in Apache's httpd.conf.
