Removal of a cached page in yahoo search that is no longer valid?

Question

There is a cached page that shows slanderous content that has been removed. I had the page removed from the site but the link on yahoo is still cached. It has personal information and untrue statements that show up in the cached page.

I have contacted the webmaster of the site again requesting they apply the

appropriate robots.txt file or meta tags to block indexing or archiving this page. However no responce was received

Thank you in advance for all of your help

Hi, I tried to get a cached page removed from yahoo, they say it takes 3-4 weeks for it to be updated as that how long it takes for it to crawl the web. Then I contacted google and made a request, it was removed in a few days. Now they seem to be gone from yahoo too. It will go away.
