Wordpress web address's not working?

I am having problems with Wordpress breaking my web addresses (url's) every time i press update.

Here is the page with the problem: http://kadampafestivals.org/scandinavia/?page_id=5... Try clicking any of the URL's and you will end up on the main page.

Why is it that it automatically adds "http://kadampafestivals.org/scandinavia/wp-admin/%... to the start of all the url's. In the html they are quite normal:

<a href="www.mediteraistockholm.se">www.mediteraistockholm.se</a>

Please let me know how I can fix this. Plugin's are not an option as the wordpress is setup in such a way that they can’t be installed. It’s not my doing, I am just in charge of upgrading it for 2012.

Thanks in advance.

When I started out I was clueless, the only advantage I had was that I knew I was clueless, so I decided to study everything I could get my hands on. I read countless ebooks & printed books, I took several $600-$1200 classes, & I watched YouTube videos nonstop, but to be honest the most valuable resource I stumbled upon was the $17 Video Tutorials from…
