Ok everyone, I finally figured this out and it was a complete dumba** move on my part. I found that the problem "magically" went away. Tracing my steps back to see what I had done moments before I found that I had disabled one menu selection from my main menu. Toggling back/forth and the problem appears/disappears. This particular menu item was just a separator for a set of dropdown child menu items except for one small thing... I had selected 'Alias' instead of 'Separator' and did not provide an internal URL.....
Cole, your suggestion to use the native SEF is a very good one. The reason i am hesitant is that I currently have over 700 pages cached at google, yahoo, live, etc all using sh404SEF URL's and i do not want to lose those links. With sh404SEF I can import/export the current redirects.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions!

I was wondering if there is a way to make the dashes (-) turn into underscores?
EG: Current URL: google.com/site-tools
Desired URL: google.com/site_tools

That's what the "Alias" field decides when you're filling out an article. Enter the title, and then the "Alias" is how you want the url to show.

Holy Post reviving Batman!
I REALLY APOLOGIZE to all of the people that I missed their questions and comments about this post. There was a brief time my E-Mail address was wrong and I was not getting updates about any posts here on RT.
Since 2008, (I cannot believe it has been 3 years since I wrote this) I have learned even more about SEF and SEO, in fact I am still amazed that the information I wrote above was as good as it is.
Now on with it, To all of the people that I missed answering, please let me know and I will answer them right away.
Thanks for all of the kind words,
Jeff Brown
