Nope. You have to contact the owner. Nothing to do with google, they
just index peoples' sites and link to them. If someone else publishes
incorrect information on a web site, it's up to the owners of that web
site to fix it.

@z34g2000cwc.googlegroups.com:
What kind of "wrong information"? A wrong address? Or defamatory info?
If the information is defamatory, he can find out who made the "file" by
going to the address in Google's search results. Then, he can do a "whois"
to find the site's owner and hosting company. Then, your friend can (and
should) send an e-mail to the hosting company about the defamatory
information. He should IMMEDIATELY follow that up with a certified letter
to the hosting company and site's owner telling them to remove the
information. If that doesn't work, your friend should enlist the services
of qualified legal counsel.

Actually, he might want to contact a lawyer BEFORE starting all that.
For example: Let's assume that I have a website that says "Karl Groves
is a registered Sex Offender". Well, if I were referring to YOU, and it
were untrue, then it would, indeed, be defamatory. HOWEVER, I might be
referring to ANOTHER "Karl Groves", perhaps even in a different country.
When I search on my name, I find that I am a Photographer, a musician, a
VP of Syndication, a CTO at MIVA, a Geological Sciences student at UCSB,
and a dairy owner - all on the first page...
Are all of these sites posting false information about me?
