  • if ($paged < 2) {
query_posts("posts_per_page=1&offset=(3 * $paged) + 1");
}
?>

<?php query_posts('&cat=-4&posts_per_page=3'); ?>

    no idea why you use a if statement on the query_posts() with the paged parameter;
    (you might want to explain this with a few more words)

    but this is not even the point:
    whatever you set in the first two lines of the snippet above, will always be overwritten by the last line above, which does not include the paged parameter.
    ignoring your if statement’s purpose, instead of the last line, you could try:

    <?php query_posts('&cat=-4&posts_per_page=3$paged=$paged'); ?>
