Well I tried duplicating a 400 error by putting a SPACE in the URL
But that returns a 404 error.

Such as:
http://houseandhome.msn.com/%20Homes/FiveSecretsToASuccessfulPurchase0.a
spx
Bad example since it is ASP, but still returns a 404 Error code.

So I understand what it is saying but I am not able to 
Duplicate it. I if can duplicate it then I can try to research
And fix the problem.

Same with the 405, how would the request method be other than a form?

That the HTTP request was syntactically incorrect. It might have had a
space in the wrong place or something.

Yes (although not necessarily because of a form). Scripts often scan for
systems that allow PUT and DELETE.
