My category links stopped working. I have posts filed under each one and they had been working fine, but I just noticed that they no longer do. Unfortunately, I have no idea <em>when</em> they stopped working or what I did to break them.

Try to re-save your permalink settings

Thanks.. I just changed the category base to "category" in permalink settings, but they still don't work.

Hello
Save again your permalinks settings, if this does not work, please copy/paste your .htaccess file
See you

.htaccess file:
# Use PHP5 Single php.ini as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5s .php

htaccess is ok.
Can you try to deactivate all plugins and see if your links works again ?
If yes : reactivate plugins 1 by 1 to find which one is the bad one.
If no : i'm already think about this ...
;)

Change your permalinks to default, save
Select again your custom permalink, save
Try to deactivate some plugins in reverse chronological order in wich were activated
Ant Lively comments:
Thanks Luis! Strangely enough, this worked. I think the first couple of responses here <em>may</em> have been suggesting the same thing, but they weren't very specific, so I hadn't tried switching to default and back to custom. Doing this 2-3 times seems to have done the trick!

Your link directs to http://www.audiocompulsive.com/category/culture/
What is the (perma)link used in the category overview page? (when you hover the "View" link).
What happens if you click that View link, does it show up then?

Here's what my [[LINK href="https://img.skitch.com/20111208-1e3wp52j4gkuq9etaxwusfu4ht.png"]]category overview[[/LINK]] page looks like.
When I click on "View", it still takes me to [[LINK href="https://img.skitch.com/20111208-rkyynei7ik1th56y7k32ijcdy4.png"]]this[[/LINK]] page.
Just Me comments:
Your category overview page, shows a permalink option too. What happens if you add the "category" part there.
