Heard of something called bitsadmin ? me neither. This utility is used by Microsoft Windows Update to suck down updates for your PC. It can also be used to send things back to Redmond. So, if this utility falls into the wrong hand, your PC is in trouble (traffic do not have to be destined for Redmond, I guess).

It is scary that a website can fool Google into indexing and ranking its pages (5.5 billions of them) in just 18 days ! By the time it has been blacklisted, another one could have been spawned. Imagine too the money that can be made as each of these ranked pages is linked to Adsense. No wonder the decent articles are harder to find these days. merged.ca

Well, if your articles climb up the Google search results really quickly for the first few days, then completely disappears from the radar, then you might be feeling the effects of this so-called Sandbox. I found this article www.gnsseo.com , which explains this phenomenon pretty well. So don't despair, your articles might come back from oblivion one day.
