IS there any way of taking information off the web that pops up when I put my name in a search engine?

No there is no way. That info is purchased via many sources and cannot be removed

You have to go to the site, email the administrator ( go to help and find the email) and tell them you are being harassed and ask to take down your information. Keep a copy of the email you sent to them. If they refuse, or if you find the your information has been spread to other sites, you might want to seek legal advice to track down the user who has posted your info and take legal actions if possible....

The best way to do this is to clear your online forms (if you are using Windows, of course). This can easily be done by selecting "Internet Options" from the "Tools" menu. Click on the "Content" tab, and then press the "AutoComplete..." button. Then, click the "Clear Forms" button and select "OK." \n\nThis will clear all the entries from your Yahoo Search Box and other search engines, but will also clear any other information that you entered into other forms, eg. name, surname, address, e-mail address, etc.\n\nHope I could help you...

Use a service like anonymizer.  You basically access the web through them and their ip address rather than yours will be visible.

While I cannot say this with 100% accuracy, I will say no.  I believe that your internet connection itself is not confidential.  There are tools such as a packet sniff that can reveal what your activity has been and where you are.  Also, if you recall, Ask Jeeves used to show what other people were searching.

Usually you can try going to the "Tools" in your browser and go into "Options". Inside "Option", you can clear your web / browsing history.

Let's say you have Firefox.\n\nTools -> Options -> Privacy -> History -> Clear Browsing History now

all depends what internet browser you are using....\n\nbut for a vague direction I would say go to "tools" then "options" and then check history or something along those terms... should find a nice "clear all" button that will clean things up for you
