[Bf-webcontent] wrong search engine "hint" for "get blender"

[Dan McGrath]

Hi,

Hmm, interesting. Well the only thing that I can think of would be to
totally block (via robots.txt) indexing of the archive site, as a redirect
would defeat the whole purpose of making the archives available. Although
in theory, we could redirect only search engines like Google bot from
indexing that download page by redirecting it to the real one.

Thanks for the heads up. This type of stuff usually takes time to show up.
