MSN Search (Live.com) has been bombing one of my sites for over half a year
with referral spam. It makes a mess. Other Webmasters complain as well. They
try to boost their image using fake hits and it took a while for ComScore,
HotWise, Nielsen and other 'gauges' to 'adapt' by penalising Microsoft.
I'm actually quite surprised that this abuse is no longer widely reported. I
guess it's old news, but Microsoft has not stopped.
