Oh yes, sites like that *soooo* tick me off. If you are not going to make something publicly accessible, then IMO it shouldn't come up in the Google search results. However, it is a legitimate tag:
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOARCHIVE"> Sticking that on your page will still let spiders crawl it, but (for Google at least) it will not show a "Cached" link in the search results. I complain every time to Google (link at bottom of search results page) when I get a site that does the old bait-n-switch. I think stuff like that is going to be the downfall of Google (ever tried to search for a part number and hit a bazillion useless part-miner sites?) Sorry for the rant... Now back to the regular programming....
