If you're using the .htaccess file to remove /index.php, you might have to add an exception for wp-login to your .htaccess file

This is an example I've used to stop this rule for some directories and filetypes (? is for GoDaddy).

    #index.php to /
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|results\.php|images|blog|wp-admin|wp-login|scripts|captcha|styles|css|js|robots\.txt|sitemap\.xml)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

I came across a bug in WordPress 3.0 with the wonderful Redirection plugin. When you create a new post/page it will somehow add a redirect that makes the home page redirect to the new post/page. What happens is that it creates a redirect automatically in the Modified posts group. Tools>>Redirection>>Groups>>Modified posts Just delete the redirect that has been created to “/” and it should be fine. This solves the Redirection plugin bug, problem, issue, whatever. This only happens with newly published posts / pages. Hopefully they will fix this awesome WordPress plugin soon.

If you don't want to get your hands too dirty, this plugin will do it if you enable the Redirection module after installing: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/theme-my-login/
