For some sites, they intentionally let Google index and cache part of the site, and then via a robots file, stop them from doing it again - without instructing google to also *flush* the cached content. This is also accomplished with a mix of inappropriate sitemap use and what the website allows when it sees the googlebot connecting as a user-agent.
Mostly intentional with porn. Mostly accidental with private corporate data. There are many reasons to have an understanding of SEO for security purposes - particularly when cleaning up past security mistakes that have had web-exposure. -- ME2 On Thu, Nov 4, 2010 at 2:49 PM, Paul Everett <[email protected]>wrote: > I was doing a google search for something and noticed the *Cached* link, > which I see all the time, but this time I wondered if blocked content could > get thru my firewall by viewing *Cashed* content.
