- Adsense Login Paranoia (post #1)
- Google Toolbar False Tracking (post #2)
- Buying Links Even with NoFollow Tag (post #4)
- Getting Filtered Out (post #7)
- Placing Scraper Sites Above Unique Content (post #8)
- Collateral Damage (post #9) (read post #9, very funny)
- Selling Text Links (post #10)
- Clicking on Text Links (post #11)

And plenty more coming at the WebmasterWorld thread. Also note that someone says in the forum, that the solution to all of this is to block GoogleBot like Brett did. :)
