Links to articles redirected to Homepage

There is an old forum relating to this topic without activity for many months. I am not sure if it might be helpful to start a new one since there have been updates to the extension since then. This problem was supposedly fixed. However, using Joomla 1.7 and the lastest version of MJ, I am still getting all links to articles redirected to my homepage. This happens from Google Map links (.kml file) and directly typing in the URL for the article all the same. There must be some basic setting that is preventing things from working correctly as this makes the extension useless for most purposes. Any help in finding that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Tracy

What redirects do you have in .htaccess? And what sef extension do you use?

Options +FollowSymLinks

## Mod_rewrite in use.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^freeridestash.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ www.freeridestash.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I have the http:// in there, but the forum editor is converting it to a hotlink.

Right now, I am only using the SEF feature built into Joomla 1.7. Since you brought it up, are some of the SEF extensions not compatible with MJ if I add one later?

Thanks you.
