   Hi - In my categories all my next page/previous page links work fine, but on the homepage after clicking next page they just show the 1st page content over and over even though the url shows http://www.website.com/page/2/ etc.,

   I presume this is come kind of query error? Should I be using a separate template for categories and index with a separate query?

   here my index.php:

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   
   	<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
   
   	<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn" role="main">
   
   	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   
   	  <?php
      if (is_home()) {
         query_posts("cat=-3");
      }
   ?>
   
   		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   			<div <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   
   				<div class="entry">
   					<?php the_content('Read the rest &raquo;'); ?>
   				</div>
   
   			</div>
   
   		<?php endwhile; ?>
   
   		<div class="navigation prevnext">
   			<div class="alignright"><?php next_posts_link('Next Page &raquo;') ?></div>
   			<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Page') ?></div>
   		</div>
   
   	<?php else : ?>
   
   		<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
   		<p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
   		<?php get_search_form(); ?>
   
   	<?php endif; ?>
   
   </div>
   
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   Try changing query_posts("cat=-3"); to:

   $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   query_posts("cat=-3&paged=" . $paged);
