I have a site containing pages that I don't want their content being indexed by search engines so all of those pages have
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW" />
in their header and it has been like this for a while now.
Both Google and Yahoo respected the tag and those pages are not being indexed by them but today I checked and found all those pages even recent ones are indexed and cached on Bing.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Soroush
Hi,
This is a known issue we are working quickly to resolve. If you have pages you would like permanently removed from our index, please send me a mail to bwmc@microsoft.com with your domain name and "MSNBot ignoring robots tags" in the subject line. Please also include the URLs in the body of the message. You may use an * wildcard for any directories such as:
http:example.com/ wrongdirectory/*
Normally, I would request that you fill out a content removal request, however, since this is a problem on our side, I'll do the leg work for you.

*I no longer work for Bing.
Meta noindex and no follow are working here... sites like www.dailystyles.us use them properly so bing work for them
Don't know how much it will help but you could also add to or create a robots.txt with something like:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /page1.html
Disallow: /page2.php
Etc..etc.
