i received spam in my gmail inbox today... i was WTF how this hell did this get here...

so i went to google and typed in my email address.. and what do you know... it showed up.. i got 1 result, and that result was from my teck profile. it was under my msn IM username.. so i removed it from my profile, but my email addy still shows up in google becuase they cache there results..

is there anyway that you can make it so that you have to be registered to view someones profile, that way a search engine cant just pull up email addresses that are associated with msn messenger.? thanks

its not just teck. i got it on local boards. anytime you type your email or put msn addy in, it will post it on google.
