    Hi!

    I cannot activate my account. The ads are on http://www.heureka.se/ but the validation tells me "Ads not found on http://www.heureka.se/Misc/DynamicRSS.ashx?category=1" which is my RSS feed and really should not contain any ads.

    You need to get it deindexed by telling Google not to in your robots file

    So I need to add all my files that won´t contain any ads to robots.txt, like
    Disallow: /Foo/Bar.ashx

    ... and then wait for Google to visit my site and deindex them?

    Is that right?

    That is correct

    In the meantime, just hit the validate link a few times until it moves on to a different page where the ads actually are

    The other option is make the URL have "RSS" as a word... for example:

    http://www.heureka.se/Misc/Dynamic_RSS.ashx?category=1

    Then the validator can identify it as an RSS feed right away.

    Does the same apply for Atom?
    i.e.
    http://www.heureka.se/Misc/Dynamic_Atom.ashx?category=1

    Is there any documentation covering things like this?

    No... "atom" is not a flagged word. RSS, XML, etc. are though.
