can't reach my own admin in drupal 7

I'm having a strange problem and hope somebody might have a suggestion where I can look. I created the site marceliotstein.com (D7) on a server that hosts several other domains, and I have recently moved some domains around. Since then, when I go to marceliotstein.com/user or marceliotstein.com/admin I am automatically sent to a 404 page on a different server that is actually no longer even hosted on this ISP account. I have looked in the settings, in every relevant database table, and tried everything I could think of. I can't reach my own admin. Any ideas? Thanks.

List of D7 modules backported to D6

In my opinion, it would be nice to have a page listing modules moving to core in D7 and if they have been backported to D6 yet. As I am creating new sites this year, I'd like to start using these modules, especially if I am looking to add a new feature. I don't want to learn module B when module A will be in core next year.

Retrieve a list of all taxonomy terms organized by vocabulary for a select form

I need to create a form (select) for the selection of a taxonomy term from all the terms available. The options must be all the terms organized by vocabulary.

Something like:

vocabulary1
-cat1
-cat1child
-cat2
cat3
vocabulary2
-cat4
-cat5
-cat6
Vocabulary3
-cat7
-cat8
-cat9

This is what I'm working on but obviously it doesn't work.

Watch this video - Is Drupal the right solution for this Enterprise?

Hello Drupal Community:

I am the Technology Project Manager for a company recently funded and we are evaluating platforms for the backbone of our site with Drupal being one of the top recommendations. Instead of comparing it to other CMS's on this thread, we'd like present our video and get your feedback on whether Drupal would be the right solution.

It's time for Drupal to take on vbulletin4

vbulletin 4 was released late last year and there seems to be a consensus that it's a disappointment. Jelsoft (the company that brought us the original software) was bought out and the current developers are, imo, more concerned with quick turnover than delivering a solid project. This thread is not to bash the current programmers, as I'm sure they work very hard. But since vb4 comes with a CMS (a buggy, feature-anemic one at that), now seems like the perfect time for Drupal to take the charge.

There has never been a fully functional integration between vbulletin and a robust CMS. If a webmaster wants a great CMS and a great forum, we have to settle for a buggy bridge/plugin/module (Drupal/Wordpress to vbulletin). If a webmaster wants true user and content integration with no bugs, we have to settle for the inferior forum (Drupal). A complete solution has been in high demand for years, but I suspect it's never come to fruition because it would require months of hardcore coding to duplicate the functionality of vbulletin. Maybe programmers feel their time is better spent developing paid services, or contributing to an open source forum like phpBB.

It's 2010 though. After using Drupal to develop a variety of sites, I'm convinced it can be used to build or improve any web application. If you're here, I'm probably preaching to the choir, so moving along.
