I have a main page category : widget

and 100 widget/subcategories each one with it's own page.

inside each subcategory page there are listed the 100 links to the other subcategories so the user can navigate easily from one subcategory to the other.

subcategory: red widget, white widget, blu widget, green widget , african widget, american ....and so on

there is no spam intention or my part but I'm wondering if it will be considered so by msn search.

thanks in advance

If we know they're all from the same source, no, it's not a problem. So, for example, if your site is widgets.com and these are all internal links.

If your sites are something like home.widgets.com and office.widgets.com, we obviously have a problem, but we recognize that this is our bug; unless there's other clear intent to spam from the content of your pages, we won't consider you a spammer. (And we're working to fix this particular problem fairly soon.)

If, however, your sites are completely different -- like home-widgets-2.com and office-widgets-3.com -- then we'll probably consider you a spammer unless proven otherwise.

Hope that helps.
