Since Google's Bourban update I have noticed that the bots from G, MSN, and Yahoo are all picking up pages with _vti_cnf. For example: www.MyDomaineName.com/ThisSection/_vti_cnf/ThisPage.htm
I never noticed this happening before, but it may have always been a problem and I just did not notice because I actually had traffic back then.
Anyway, can anyone tell me why these pages are showing up and if there is anything I can do to stop it.
Thanks

How about puting
disallow: /ThisSection/_vti_cnf/
in your robots.txt?

Thanks, I do not know how to do that, but I will do some searching and see if I can get it.
Thanks again
