MSN adds my history to its crawl!

found my private proxy in search results ..

Big surprise to find my directories, that are completely private, not linked from anywhere, such as proxies in MSN search results!

Anyone else a similar experience?

Went and changed all my robots.txt, but is MSN going to update their records with the next crawl?

I think we just ahve to accept that there is no such thing as a private web folder any longer. All it takes is for you to click an external link from within your private area and you may have a public link on someones web stats pages.

The only way to have something truely private is to have it on a test server that does not accept incoming traffic. Or if you need to have it on a public site, password protect your test/private area.

You are right. And I should have known. It was still a surprise and I have password protected that folder as well ...
