I need to remove a URL "foo" at example.com/foo.
But when I type the URL under "Remove URL" and hit continue, on the next page I see the URL changed to


example.com/www.example.com/foo (This is not the URL I need to remove.)


Instead of:


example.com/foo

I have no clue why this is happening. Any help appreciated.

You need to add the www version as a separate site to google webmaster tools. Google is treating them as such.

First, make sure you're giving the full URL, including . Although you might think example.com is a website, it could just as easily be a filename on another website.

Also make sure you are submitting the correct domain for the GWT profile. www.example.com and example.com are different sites. If GWT is autocompleting to example.com... then I would assume you're on the non-www profile. So either submit the non-www URL here, or to to the www profile and submit the www URL there.
