Hi! The robots file is not a text file. I know! Products blocked due to possible copyright infringement. A lot are disputes over product name or t-shirt slogan. We were ranking for some terms we did not want to be associated with so we added the offending search result page to the file. Not sure how it ever got indexed in the first place. Peace!
