    As far I understood, the following <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"> would mean the page must not be indexed and the links must not be followed.

    If the page is not indexed then it wouldn't come up in the search results and wouldn't give me a headache with the CO-OP ad network. :mad:

    P.S. The page has had the meta tags since creation.

    the page url is an e-mail form

    I have submitted a request to have it removed by G, willl check back in 24-48 hours.

    Correct... Google will not index it and ignore the links on the page.
