[LRUG] Exception notifier and bots

[Andrea (Q)]

I just don't want to receive it, i don't know if it's a good idea to  
tell the bots to stay away from my page, more pages are indexed more  
people can see my app, no?
But that's funny because actually i've some troubles with the search  
engines, my domain disappear :D
