Robot txt blocking too much!

[Andy1]

When I check Google Webmaster Tools it is telling me that 45 pages are restricted by the robots.txt file. When I look at which pages they are, it's product and manufacturer pages (one I want the search engines to crawl). The list of restricted pages is growing every day.

 

Here is my robots.txt file:

Please, can anyone help?

I am concerned about the number of pages that are 'restricted by robot txt'. My robot.txt file isn't blocking product pages, yet Google Webmaster Tools is suggesting it is.

 

The crawl rate of Google has dropped significantly and none of the changes I made to the sites Meta data has been updated for a month, unlike other sites I have created.

 

I am thinking of putting my other prestahsop site on hold for now, as this seems to be a problem.
