   Ok, I figured out how to remove two categories from my index page by placing this in index.php:

   <?php
   if (is_home()) {
   $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   query_posts("cat=-4,-5&paged=$paged");
   }
   ?>

   That keeps categories 4 & 5 from showing. My next question is how can I do the same thing on my archive page.

   I've got a custom archive.php and I tried calling it like:

   <?php
   if (is_archive()) {
   $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   query_posts("cat=-4,-5&paged=$paged");
   }
   ?>

   This excluded the 4 & 5 categories, but it shows all the post no matter what month or archives I went to. Anybody, know what I can do to make this happen?
