Weird URLS indexed by Search Engines

I am looking at Google Webmaster tools and it has several 404 errors for my site. For example, there are a ton of these:

http://www.smellgoodonline.com/0jwUAz7gyU=psqSKR7uLQY=FoE5MUgwSMM=GXvI4kdCIuM='>http://www.smellgoodonline.com/0jwUAz7gyU=psqSKR7uLQY=FoE5MUgwSMM=GXvI4kdCIuM=

as well as URL's that google thinks has the "shop" directory in it 2 times, like this:

http://www.smellgoodonline.com/shop/shop/fragrances/402660-ysatis-by-givenchy.html'>http://www.smellgoodonline.com/shop/shop/fragrances/402660-ysatis-by-givenchy.html

Which should really be: http://www.smellgoodonline.com/shop/fragrances/402660-ysatis-by-givenchy.html'>http://www.smellgoodonline.com/shop/fragrances/402660-ysatis-by-givenchy.html

So what are the funky urls that google has, and why is it trying to crawl the incorrect urls as in the second one?

I'm completely puzzled by this and would appreciate any insight that can be given.

Thanks!!!!

my hunch is because your logo (like the top left image) sends you to smellgoodonline.com/shop instead of just smellgoodonline.com... then you have links that somewhere link to "shop/xxxxx" instead of "smellgoodonline.com/shop/xxxx"

use a sitemap tool like http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ and run your site thru there -- you'll find lots of dead pages and links and then you can edit accordingly. I tried it but it took too long and I lost interest 'cause it wasn't my site... but think that'll help you.
