    Removing a URL from Google's indexes
    I am using Windows XP Professional and I want to remove pages and details from Google.

    I have been told by Google to create a "robot.txt" file. I then need to place this in my "server's root directory".

    I then need to get into the <HEAD> section of my HTML page.

    Please can someone tell me how I can access my "server's root directory"? Could you also tell me how I can get into the <HEAD> section of my HTML page?

    I look forward to hearing from someone as soon as possible.

    Thank you very much.

    Kind regards,

    You must be putting your webpages on some web space somewhere for Google to be able to reach them. You'll probably want to put that text file in the same directory as your index/default web page.

    Every web page contains certain tags outlining sections. One of these is a <HEAD> tag (along with a closing tag </head>). You obviously need to open this HTML page in an editor (notepad will do) and enter something into the <head></head> section of the page. It'll be near the top somewhere.
