MSN Messenger 7.5 promotes Google!

Hilarious! I swear, I'm NOT making this up! :-)

I was chatting with a co-worker this afternoon, (because I'm too lazy to walk one floor up and talk to him).  We're using MSN Messenger 7.5.  One time I clicked on "Send" but accidentally hit the "Search" button just below it, after entering the "Sick" smile. 

I get Google every time I enter the "Sick Smiley".  Wait until Scoble and Slashdot sees this :-)

The sick smiley, or +o( , contains only one valid letter. When you search ( http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=%2Bo%28 ) for +o(, MSN search seems to just search for o: http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=o

Google, of course, disagrees: http://www.google.com/search?q=%2Bo%28
