Prevent indexing of website section

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Oct 21.2008

Hi guys, I was analyzing the Google Webmaster Tools, and I saw that Googlebot was seeing some of the footer on a particular website, which has content irrelevant to the website (copyrights, made by, etc). Is there a way to block that content from being indexed/analyzed. I read that Yahoo has a “robots-nocontent” class tag to that, but I’m more worried about Google.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
