Google Webmaster Tools is reporting crawl errors for links that never existed, and if i check the "Linked from" tab for a given error link, it shows another that never existed.
They all mention joomla/ which is not the cms used on this domain (it's wordpress fyi).
Exampled: http://example.com/joomla/index.php/component/user/register
Linked from: http://example.com/joomla/component/user/login?return=L2######
What is going on?
UPDATE 1
I tried something: I provided one of the faulty urls to the "Fetch as
Google" functionality. Instead of returning a 404, it returns a 301 to another Joomla page.
