Are you talking about regular Google search, or in
Google Groups?

Coz regular Google search has buttons for voting on the
results. Click the "up-arrow", and the result is boosted
to the top. Click the "x", and the result is booted to
the bottom.

I can't say for certain, but I believe they tally those
into their top-secret ranking algorithms. It's not the
same thing as a "kill file", but if enough people click
the "x" on certain results, its bound to have an effect.

There is "advanced search" on www.google.com. Have you checked it up?
Questions about using Google on the CDOS Usenet group are really unusual
and I thought I saw it all.

I remember that Jonathan Lewis once posted two links on his blog for
Firefox and IE where you can customize your Google search for that
purpose:

Thanks. Can I send that to my management?
The number of times they come up with the "why don't you rebuild indexes"
question is getting most annoying...
