The company found more than 29,000 convicted sex offenders in the United States had profiles on MySpace - up from a figure of 7,000 given in May.
MySpace said it was pleased it had identified and removed the profiles of the offenders.
Critics of MySpace call for new laws to make such sites safer for children.
