Some of my sites have been dropped from Yahoo yet the Yahoo slurp keeps visiting my sites. My sites have not been re-indexed. What's going on?

By dropped do you intend that you can't find yourself in the rankings or that you've been removed from the index? Either way... maybe an offending URL would be helpful.

Are you looking in Yahoo?

I am not showing any results. And I haven't for 2 weeks.

You seem to be confusing indexed with ranking

I had ranking in Yahoo. They were lost. And my sites were dropped from the Yahoo index. Yet the slurp keeps coming back to my dropped sites and not indexing a thing.
