Hello,

I am on a VDI network and I use CPanel and I use some of thier CGI Script ready use and I was quiet impressive but I would like to ask few questions.

1) The Search script looks good and easy to use, even easy to setup and can do 100% customizable which is great. But suppose if someone use Yahoo! or Google, to search, how I can set a block to NOT show speific directory I want with this?

2) How or Should I make robot.txt, I have tons request aganist my website regarding my stats shows.

3) Do anyone here use Mailman? I like them and it's nice to use. Any tips and hints is welcome

I need some help, thanks :)

By the way, I updated my site, its so nice !!!

robots.txt will allow you to block Yahoo! and the what not from indexing your search database.

Note, however, that robots.txt will only work at excluding searches for those search entities that voluntarily subscribe to the robots exclusion protocol. It will have no effect on any others, such as spammers harvesting addresses.
