Delete Y! search result?
How do I delete search results on Yahoo Search Engine?
These are my own pages that doesn't exist anymore but for the same reason I can't add them to Yahoo's Site Explorer and delete them that way.
Thanks!

Search engines update their pages several times a year using automated searchers, called "spiders," that check to see what pages and links are still active. So in a few months, you'll see that your now-deleted pages no longer appear in search results.
I had the same thing happen to me when I deleted my web pages; there was nothing that I could do to erase the results.
If you have a really good reason for not wanting your deleted pages to appear in the search results, try contacting Yahoo directly.
