I submitted 4 long-standing sites for updates (new URLS). This was taken care of quickly and accurately by the respective editors; however, I have noticed that the top level of a search still reflects the old URLs. It seems that Google continues to pick up the old locations and DMOZ has the old URLs listed at that level. Is this a normal occurrence? Should these URLs be updated as well to reflect the correct URL? Below are the listings of incorrect URLs that I have copied directly from the top levels of searches. All URL's should begin with www.neonalley.com. If one were to click on a respective category he would then arrive at the new and correct URL. Of course, clicking on the active link would send the user to the old URL.

DMOZ search doesn't update frequently -- nor more than once a week, and you can see the last update was in December 2004 if you look at the bottom of the search screen.

You'll have to take up with Google when they update -- although they spider DMOZ more often than they update the Google directory.
