Can anyone direct me to some good articles on how best to change an existing site which has php sessions. It currently is not indexed by Google / MSN and Yahoo because of that. Thanks

I believe that by default, PHP uses cookies for sessions. When cookies aren't support it falls back to a URL parameter. You can force PHP to use cookies or nothing by setting session.use_only_cookies to 1 in php.ini.
Do make sure that spiders are seeing a session variable first though. Emulate a spider with a header viewer to be certain.

Search the phpbb.com (which uses sessions) support forums for 'google' and you should get some good ideas.
