Problem with site listing

Last fall I discovered that our site description had been changed without our knowledge. The problem is that the new description states that our product includes another product that, in fact, it does not include. When readers go to our site and discover the error many will conclude that this was just a cheap trick on our part to bring them to the site, and promptly leave. I have repeatedly requested, by standard procedure, to have this error corrected, most recently on March 4, but the error continues. At present it appears to be doing us more harm than good to be listed on DMOZ, and I am sure that was never DMOZ's intention. Any suggestions?

By "standard procedure", do you mean that you submitted an update request describing what you just said here (about it saying that you include a product that you don't)? If that isn't what you meant, I'd recommend you do that now. If that is what you meant, post the URL and the category it's in here and we can check and see what the status of your update request is.

Thank you for your help. The site is SOUBRA(TM) Breast Prosthesis Supports under Business: Healthcare: Products and Services: Prosthetics:Breast Prosthetics. The first sentence of the description "Breast prostheses with adhesive free attachments." is misleading because we do not include breast prostheses with our adhesive free attachments. I pointed this out in at least one request for revision but do not have a record of the exact wording. The second sentence of the description is nonsensical. In my request of March 4 I asked for the description to state simply: "Non adhesive remote supports for external breast prostheses."

I've updated the description for you.

Now I have my first job for the day, as the majority of titles in that category do not conform to the guidelines. <img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" />

&lt;add&gt; Corrected after Yapuka pointed out my mistake. <img src="/images/icons/blush.gif" alt="" /> &lt;/add&gt;

You should try this link: http://dmoz.org/Business/Healthcare/Products_and_Services/Prosthetics/Breast_Prosthetics/ .

Thank you both very much. That should clear up the confusion.
