  this is an entire category of attack, and it is really useful. there have been a number of worms that use google queries to find targets to propagate. there are also a number of info query tools that do similar. over 3000+ Google queries categorized in exploit-db: http://www.exploit-db.com/google-dorks/ http://www.exploit-db.com/google-dorks/

  I'm sure lots of people have had unwanted encounters with Google's crawlers, but here's mine: I used to have a subdomain pointing to my home IP which was protected using Apache htpasswd. I naively had all of my clients' credentials stored in text files (conveniently named credentials.txt). Somehow I accidentally removed the htpasswd authentication and it was publicly exposed for a day or two. Of course Google indexed it and you could view everything in Google's cache. There was a process for removing content from Google, but it took a few months to get completed. I never told anyone and I'm pretty sure all that info is now purged (I've tried to find it multiple times and it doesn't seem to exist anywhere). I also downloaded a WoW guide that I had temporarily thrown up on one of my servers and forgot to take down. Like a year later I randomly was running a Google image search for 'Northrend Map' and happened to notice my site was the THIRD image. At first I thought it was a personalized search result, but I checked from multiple other places and it was still there even though there were zero inbound links.
