Thanks. I've tried some of the guides out there. The problem is this guy really knows how to get specific keywords to the top of google pages. My name is uncommon as well, which doesn't help, since that pretty well makes that keyword a niche.
I've been through all the tactics with google webmaster tools etc. I've used profiles on high PR sites with the right keywords, but I cannot shift this guy, who just keeps on coming back again and again.
Also, as far as reputation goes, we're not talking about slandering a company profile - this is more along the lines of I'll say stuff about you that will incite people to personally want to .... etc Pretty desperate for help. I can reveal more details in a PM, but not on a public board. It is wrecking my life.
