if I seek to find www.budweiser.beer using IE (as most use), I am directed to Microsft's search page...try mcdonalds.bigmac...same result. ford.cars...same result. And here is an interesting one: try delta.faucet and delta.airlines...ok, so I can switch browsers...No, I am not a technologist so I must be stupid...but, in the end, what's the diff for the average user of the browser line? What has ever been the diff here? MSN search simply re-directs "new TLD's" that "do-no-exist" (for its own financial gain)...How is this different to Verisign typo's at the second level? Verisign is more of a monopolist than Microsoft? Someone had better inform the USG...budweiser.beer must be a typo because it is not registered, would be the logic...so, let's just continue to pretend it "does-not-exist" regardless of response to user query from MSN search.

This is a extremely shallow complaint re: Sitefinder. How doesn't the exact same logic apply to all the web search engines, but more so? You mistype you're query on a search engine, including "brand names" and you get stuff you don't expect. Duh.
At least Sitefinder is INFORMING you that you likely mistyped, and often provides a "do you mean?" link.

been there, done that
