pne - how does the newer Yahoo cache compare with the Google version cache? Also, when you notice the new cache version, how does it compare with the WWW vs. UK version?

In particular, are you sure that the newer cache is coming from a Slurp crawl and they are not showing you a Google result. Sometime this month, Yahoo's term will expire on Google fed results. Yes, they still have access to those. But that time is coming quickly to an end.

I think Yahoo engineers are working overtime right about now -- because that safety net is about to be cut. August will be a tell-tale month in this regard.

Is there anyway you can verify that Slurp has actually crawled the pages in question? You will need to go back into your Server logs to do this. It would be helpful to know if it has or has not actually done this.
