crap directories (that want me to pay $25 a category to have my link removed!)

I've never heard of that... WOW.

I think I would rather pay $25 to file in small claims over their use of your domain name on their site without your permission than to pay for that removal. What a scam! Maybe you could file a DMCA complaint over it, or you could use Googles soon to be Disavow Links tool.
