Site Listed in DMOZ Checkers But not in DMOZ

Hello, I submitted my site to DMOZ almost a year ago. About two to three months ago I checked a DMOZ checker on the web and it showed that my site was listed in DMOZ. Man was I happy. I went to the DMOZ site and did a search for my site and nothing came up. I then searched several DMOZ checkers on the internet and all of them showed that my site is listed in DMOZ. I read some articles on the internet that said I may have to wait a few days before I saw my site in DMOZ so I went ahead and cancelled my Yahoo Directories subscriptions because now I was listed on DMOW, the best free directory on the web. After about three weeks of checking DMOZ with no result for my site I contacted the editor that was above my listing (no editor listed for my category). I have never received a response from the editor. I have searched DMOZ for my site every other day for the past three months and it nevers shows up. My site is still showing as listed in DMOZ on all of the free DMOZ checkers on the internet. Can someone help me with this? What is going on? My website is <url removed>

Thank you.

There are a few possibilities
- those checkers are wrong (I have heard of several that make a lot of mistakes)
- you did not search correctly in DMOZ (if you search on domain only use domain.tld, do not put anything in front like www or http://, do not put anything behind like index.htm)
- your site was added not so long ago, the DMOZ search has not been updated for some time due to technical problems

DMOZ search is not intended to find individual sites but to find subjects/categories. The best way to search for a site listing in DMOZ is to use the advanced options of Google. Or ofcourse to visit the category your site belongs in and do a visual check.

Thanks. Do you know how to use the advanced options in Google?

I searched <url removed> and came up with nothing. You said the search has not been updated in a while but it has been a few months since the checkers said I was in DMOZ. I know they are very busy but the editor has not got back with me either. Unfortunately I was new at doing web design and didn't track where my listing was like I do with other directories today, so I can't look it up that way.
