    Here's a very crude MSN search results tracker.

    http://www.hotbuffalo.com/msn/Login.aspx

    To use it you have to enable IE to be allowed to retrieve datasets from other domains. This is because the results are actually fetched by the client using Javascript. While this makes it quick, there are trade offs.

    Let me know if it is worth keeping around and making better. Right now it is more "Proof of Concept".

    Not trying to harp on you, but adding a keyword works if you click the submit button, but logs me out if I hit enter. Also I don't think it's working right (see attachment)

    You need to change your security settings to allow it to "Access data sources across domains". See attached.

    I have no idea how this is going to function in Firefox however.

    If there is a demand for it, this will can be made more stable and easier on the eyes.

    I through some cheesy instructions that should help on the login page as well.

    If people like it, I'll improve it.
