Saint,

You should add some Disallows to your robots.txt so that the robots don't spend a lot of time indexing invalid content. The reason I noticed this is that a LOT "action=printpage" content indexed in google, which is very frustrating when you want the normal page with navigation (no to mention ads)...

Here's a good thread on how to build a search engine friendly robots.txt for SMF...

OK. Change made. Will take a while for Google to work it through.
