Oddest thing… has Microsoft taken over the Internet


I accidentally copy/pasted this URL into my previous entry:

http://http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?id=406459

The Odd part is that www.microsoft.com came up?? What the heck? I’m using Firefox on Gentoo Linux… I can guarantee I do not have any preferences set to microsoft.com… Can anyone explain?

Ok, figured it out - Firefox by default searches bad urls on Google. If you go to Google and search for “http://” for some reason microsoft.com is the first result. So, Firefox users are re-directed to microsoft.com…. let’s fix that Google.
