I left this in the massive 302 thread, but i'm afraid it's being buried and i think it's a valid question. i'm also wondering if it's just me or if others see it.

GoogleGuy:

Note that for inurl: and allinurl: searches, results from other sites are perfectly valid. So if you own yoursite.com and do a search allinurl:www.yoursite.com, it's a completely valid result to get a url from www.someothersite.com/resources?url=www.yoursite.com, for example. That's how inurl: and allinurl: are supposed to work--they match all docs with the requested terms in the url, not just docs on www.yoursite.com. That doesn't imply any problem/hijacking/issue; just that someone else had your domain name in their url.

when i do an allinurl:mydomain.com i'm still getting another site (302 redirecting) that shows as theirdomain.com/links.php3?op=visit&lid=24

my domain is nowhere in the URL ...

from what googleguy said, this shouldn't be happening?

thanks in advance
