Hello Tim,

Assuming you are already using Search Engine Friendly (SEF) URLs, try this:

http://www.pathfindertech.net/joomla-1-5-and-link-rel-canonical-seo/

I had a look at the http://callprobest.com site mentioned as an example in that post, including the www. version, and it seems to be functioning correctly. They use the same version of Joomla you're using.

You may also need to use this SEF extension too if you haven't already:

Good luck!
