Improper validation

When I validate my page from my desktop the validator works and gives me a thumbs up.

When I validate my page from the internet the validator thinks it is xhtml 1.0 strict but in reality my page is HTML 4.01 Transitional with the proper doctype.

When I do a validation (from my home page W3C validator button) the report starts off as
The URL you gave me, <http://www.ezyworkathome.com/>, returned a redirect to http://localhost/. 

When I do a link check (from W3C) on my page some of the links checked are not even on my page.

I am using windows xp pro sp2. I just changed the 2 keys in my registry to allow me to validate from my desktop. I have IE version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158

I never had a problem with this on my old computer with windows 98

I am also using the new ws_ftp home version 9.02 2004.08.18

Any help would be appreciated,

Stan Hansen :-)
