There are various places in which search engines can get stuck, such as the calendar (as it increases indefinately); there are some robots.txt entries that you can add such as:

Be sure to edit the path to your forums from your web root; mine for example is /forum but yours may vary.

Several items in this list aren't just bot traps, but places where SE's shouldn't be in the first place as it will just show an access denied error (as a SE is just a guest).

These include:
new user/registration page
Mark all Read
Clear cookies
View privacy
FAQ
search
who's online
show profile (you can remove this setting if you want SE's trolling your member data)
show members
calendar (including show day's events)
