  These are the WordPress.COM support forums. We do not provide support for WordPress.ORG software here. You are posting to the wrong support forum.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

  As noted above you are in the wrong forum

  Your domain goes to what is probably a parked page on Hostgator – your domain name still points to them so they are making a few cents off your domain name – either direct the domain name to a valid web site or delete the name server info at your Registrar to give a server not found
