Bug, feature or just plain weird?

    Never seen that before. I hope it isn't old news.

    ADDED: I can't get the image right, I think the system auto-shrinks them.

    Search for seamonds.com (no affiliation, i just saw it at mattcutts.com) and see the 1st result.

    Mr.Stitch, seo ranter, sorry for not being specific, if the image was big it'd be obvious.

    Let me try to repost the 1st result for you. See this new attachment, look at the 1st url.

    I think Google understood it to be username:password@site.com ???

    That is bizarre.

    I thought google didn't follow 404 links.

    And where would Google pull the title and description from?
