This is a strange problem that is common to both mambo and Joomla! 1.0.X installations.

If you log into your CPanel and go to your File Manager, inside your public_html directory you should find a file named something similar to configuration.php (this is the name in Joomla!, I don't know what it's name is for Mambo).

Inside this configuration file is a parameter called $mosConfig_live_site (again in Joomla!). Make sure that value is set to http://www.lfalife.com.

I can't remember why this is important, but I think it has to do with the way the site loads. Since yours seems to be loading fine in both browsers I checked (Firefox 2 and IE7), you may or may not need to do this, but it would be good to look at anyway.
