    It is because your name is in the URL of your signature and google searches EVERYWHERE on the web.

    That's why you need to be careful about putting ANY information about yourself on the net, on any site.

    Also, typing in a home number will give you the house address associated with the number as well as the first and last name of the head of the household, AND directions to the house.

    Google also has an option, that I just found, that you can use to remove that option. Should say it right next to where it lists the information.

    Oh, really? They must have just added it since the last time I typed in my parents' house number, I'll remove their entries for them

    Your mom may have already taken your information out. Cell phone numbers do not come up, and if you have your home number unlisted then you won't show up either.

    I did figure that out about why it picked up the signature, I was just shocked that it brought me right to the profile page with my date of birth on it. I have instantly become more aware of what information I put out there on the web and I need to be more careful!
