OK then that is the problem then. You are letting the search engines decide which domain to show in the search engine results pages. I can create a post on my blog today and link to all 4 versions. Google will crawl all 4 links and then decide on their own which is the primary and then potentially filter the rest. MSN and Yahoo could be worse with duplicate content, but I wont get into that now.
So the next step is decide which on is the primary and then 301 redirect the other three to it like has been suggested 5 times before in this thread.
Matching 4 domains to one IP will always potentially cause this problem because you cant control how people link to you if you offer them 4 different domains to do so.
