    So I was doing my standard checkup on my serp's in MSN, and did a site check in the browser-

    site:www.dietdirectory.org

    and have NO idea what the hell that gobbeldy-gook is under my description! Has anyone run into that before? Google shows a correct description, but msn seems to be having some trouble.

    that's weird. those crazy characters are in msn's cache of that site as well. i checked 6 of my sites and they all show up correctly and i've never seen that before.
    I did a search for "ÅYmoÛ8 þ| ì`ô¡NšZ²÷Æö¡yk ¤" in msn and your site came up. I don't think that's a very popular keyword ;).
    Looks like you're not the only one though.

    Good find. We should do an SEO contest to rank for the keywords "ÅYmoÛ8 þ| ì`ô¡NšZ²÷Æö¡yk ¤" on MSN! :)

    ÅYmoÛ8 þ| ì`ô¡NšZ²÷Æö¡yk ¤

    I can translate this for you. But first, a riddle:

    Oft I must strive with wind and wave, Battle them both when under the sea
    I feel out the bottom, a foreign land. In lying still I am strong in the strife;
    If I fail in that they are stronger than I, And wrenching me loose, soon put me to rout.
    They wish to capture what I must keep. I can master them both if my grip holds out,
    If the rocks bring succor and lend support, Strength in the struggle. Ask me my name!

    this is strange. I did a site search for another .org website and it gives no description at all. site:en.wikipedia.org try this. maybe there's some problem with .org domains and MSN :confused:

    wikipedia is using the noindex, nofollow in their robots meta tag which is why there is no cache of the page and probably why there is no description

    LOL! Clearly, yes, that's what it is. Someone at msn decided to take the formation of my categories into consideration when displaying my site description. Deductive reasoning at its best.
