Noticed this company:

in this category:

 

/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Business_and_Economy/Shopping/Home_and_Garden/Furniture/

fixed, thanks

Rechecked the ones from #4932 - 4933 - 4978...

4826 still works with atrocious midi music...

4828 also works though the English content is limited (no redirect to a 403 page).

4836 still loads, but the pictures links were broken - I found a mirror URL which worked.

4837 also works, but might no longer exist in reality since it was last updated in the nineties.

 

4845 to 4860 done thanks

4849 is broken in FF3 but works in IE8

4851 worked, but the description was in English in a Latvian category, so removed from view.

4859 works.

[Elper]

4861 to 4880 (page 244) done, thank you

4861, 4866 and 4875 worked for me.

Going through the category http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Asia/India/Assam/Travel_and_Tourism/ I have found the listed site http://www.assamcompany.com/ is not related to Travel or Tourism of the state Assam, India. Instead, the site, listed there, is a commercial site, wrongly listed in that category with misleading description.

Kindly have a look.

Regards.

#5005 done thanks

If I search for the site, again I can find it listed under the same category, but going to that category I can not find. What is the issue, I want to know.

 

By the way, that is a a never existed company which is being presented by virtually only.
