if you're using a url 404 handler, then yes.  the page they requested is
available in cgi.query_string.

a request like this:

http://www.domain.com/foo/bar/index.cfm?catid=26&sid=134590871435

would result in a query string like this:

404;http://www.domain.com/foo/bar/index.cfm?catid=26&sid=134590871435

if you're *not* using a url 404, then i don't know of any way to find out
what url the user was requesting.

good luck,
