Have you ever done a search and you get swamped by a bunch of sites
pretending to know everything about your search criteria?

Google seems to keep on top of them (I don't see any when I do a search
at the moment) but it would be nice to blacklist certain sites from my
searches.

Dear zentom:

I have NEVER received any spam through any Google service? I don't
know why you have. Do you have a firewall?

doesnt mean spam etc

just anoying sites that come up, with the exact search terms you
entered.. as if they are an exact match.. where in fact they are just
stupid advertising etc

Yep, all these "Google bombing" sites are pretty irritating. You click
through to get a page of junk and ads. I'm not sure how that business
model is supposed to work, but it would be nice if we could personalize
certain sites we don't like to see anyway. I wouldn't want Google to
mess with their results too too much on a global scale if it might hurt
some legitimate sites so personal blacklists is a good idea.
