    When I access Paypal I receive the following message:

    (title of the webpage) : Page not found - PayPal

    Click here to retry
    Return to the homepage

    What's happening with PayPal?

    Try clearing your browser's cache memory... close browser and open it again.

    Then try opening paypal.com site

    or may be put (?) question mark in the end of the url.

    Paypal working is fine over here too.
    Clear your cookies and cache and do a scan on your computer.
    May be you are having spyware and such.

    I deleted all my cookies and it works now.
    But i still don't know what to do next, should I log-in and change my password?
    Or it was just some cookie-related problem and nothing to worry about my security?

    That happens when the page doesn't fully load, there is a problem with your connection then, because of paypals security on site.

    Try a different browser. That happens to me all the time, especially after I've logged in to Paypal, then order something thru someone's order form. Clearing the cache doesn't seem to help. I switch off between Firefox and Netscape.

    As I already said, it works now, but what happened? was a PayPal internal problem or it was because of my computer? I scanned with Webroot Spy Sweeper and no spyware. Should I change the password?

    seems fine here, maybe the server load was too much for an instance

    All you need to do is refreshing the index page when login your paypal account.
    Don't Clear your cache after open the index page.:)
