Communities strangeness - Search engine finds

Seeing weird behavior of communities on smugmug; found the issue by search engine results. If you search my name on yahoo search, a couple hits towards the top show a strange link to a community that I run, but with weird URL's of other smugmug members that have nothing to do with the community (it is a private community, only a few members, and they are not one of them).
Here is the community page:
http://www.smugmug.com/community/MSMC
Which works fine. Here's the weirdness. Here are two links that show up at the top of a yahoo search:
http://kustudios.smugmug.com/community/MSMC/2
http://kthesheep.smugmug.com/community/MSMC/2
If you click on those links, you do in fact go to the community page, and it looks fine. kustudios and kthesheep have nothing to do with MSMC. Why do these other URL's exist, is it a bug or a feature I'm not aware of, and how do we remove them so search engine results don't look so hokey?
