Obscuring algo flaws won’t help in the long run. MSN does a rather good job in trying to catch up with Google, so pointing their engineers into the right direction is a good thing.

(…Cont’d) I also suggest we contact MSN as well through their webform.
http://feedback.live.com/eform.aspx?productkey=wlsiteowner&page=wlfeedback_home_form , and: http://support.msn.com/eform.aspx?productKey=msnbot&page=support_home_options_form_byemail&ct=eformts

And I saw this:
“We may remove a website from the index if the website was reported as spam. If you suspect that your website was incorrectly identified as spam, please send an e-mail message to webspam[at]microsoft.com .” (END)

(Cont’d, and it would HELP if someone mentioned about text limit to this box!) Rich et al, I’ve asked MSN about this and got one of their typical “replies of avoidance”, I asked again and I’ll post here what they say about it.

Someone suggested to post it here. http://blogs.msdn.com/livesearch , but of course they’ve disabled any new comments to the posts! You can try try asking about it here: http://blogs.msdn.com/livesearch/contact.aspx (you have to click around for the text input boxes, but they are there). (Cont’d again…..)

First, “thanks a lot” to the….’person’ that did this webpage THAT INFORMED EVEN MORE PARASITES NO HOW TO RUIN PEOPLE!!!! That is TOTALLY irresponsible to post something like this WITHOUT A FIX FOR IT for HTML pages!! I’m all for telling MSN about this and working with them DIRECTLY, but NOT telling the world about it! Chris, I don’t think you’re “grasping” *that* concept. Everyone knows their new algo (just like every one of G’s new algo’s) screw things up every time for the worse and slam legit white-hat websites! The fact of the matter IS, these extra links DO hurt and make a difference and thanks to webpages like this, more slimeballs KNOW ABOUT IT and can and WILL harm us! (Cont’d….)

Is there any new word on this situation?

i don’t think you guys are grasping the concept. if MSN’s spam algo wasn’t so sensitive, these extra links pointing to one page wouldn’t make a difference at all.
