I did a google search on my screen name and things came up. How do I erase things so they won't come up?

Answer 1

Basically, you can't.
Once things are on the internet, and into search engines, they are there for the duration.
Anywhere you have entered comments .. like on forums, blogs, guest books, bulletin boards, and the like, it's gonna get searched, unless the website is totally private .... and even then I would not feel secure!
If you have ever had a website, and listed it on search engines or on the directory (like yahoo or aol), it will still come up, even if the website isnt there anymore.

And ... anything here on answers .... will also come up!!

So ... don't use your real name on anything.
Use a seperate screen name for different purposes.
Don't post anything you don't want shared.

Answer 4

Dont post personal information or information on the net that you don't want to be made public to begin with. You cant really do anythign about it unless you actually remove the content that you added to the site.

Answer 5

From what I understand it almost impossible. It's more difficult that getting your credit report corrected.

Answer 6

never reveal anything in the first place
