  I removed the Utah category from my blog (http://stokesnature.wordpress.com/), but it remains attached to some posts, but not others. If you click it, you get a 404 error. Here’s an example of a post with the Utah category: http://stokesnature.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/johnson-mill-getaway-day/
  Utah isn’t visible if I view the individual post (as an admin) and manage categories, so I can’t remove it from each individual post either. It is not the default category.
  I saw another similar post referring to “ghost categories” but it wasn’t resolved, nor open for comment.
  Thanks for any help!

  I would give it a little time and see if it disappears. It may be a server caching issue.

  I was just too impatient. It was a caching issue. Thanks again!
