Hi,  
Google is indexing my swf file.  
I’ve been told to use this in a robots.txt file:  
User-agent: \*  
Disallow: /.swf$

It doesn’t seem to be working.  
All my swf files are in the public\_html folder and my robots.txt file is also in that same folder.

Is everything in the right position?  
Am i doing something wrong?
