My robust standard error estimates where much less than the original estimates. For instance the coefficient T was estimated as -.015 and the original standard error was .0541, while the robust standard error is .0034. This is more than a 10 fold decrease, while what I could find in the literature suggested that robust standard errors are usually larger than the original standard errors.
Are you using a cluster option?  This FAQ might or might not be relevant:
