Looks like the file doesn't exist and the fpage to redirect you is borked or something. Here is my wget debug output:

I think to ge tto the page you either have to come from another page using a post from to http://www.hak5.org/xmlrpc.php from the episodes http://www.hak5.org/category/episodes page. If I try the url directly it fails, but if I try it from http://www.hak5.org/category/episodes it works. Do you block your refferer info?

[silentknight329]

ok none of those links worked and how do u check if refferer info is blocked... all i wanna do is get teh one episode... danget..

[gcninja]

Ya, I gave them a heads up, it works now..

EDIT:o my bad, I told them about season 1 ep 1 and two, didnt know about that one....hmmm

to quote darren:

it turns out the permalink for those two episodes were numbers which made the mod rewrite rule freak out and think it needed to convert the number to a name that didn't exist. It's all fixed now :)

I was only able to reach it when I tried the link from here: http://www.hak5.org/category/episodes

If I tried it directly, I got the same error as above.

What browser are you using, as blockign the referrer is different on browsers. IE doesn't do it be default, and usually a firewall like ZoneAlarm will bock the refferer. Opera has an option under it's Control Panel, and I can't remember with FF, but I think there is also an option in there somewhere. Might not be a referrer issue though, as I have mine blocked and it still works, so maybe it is just the sites configuration that is borked. May need to send Darren or Matt a PM to bring it to their attention.

(Here are the Links for the videos since you can't reach the page)
