I guess it's the default start page thing when you install msn and such.

im sure when you go online with vista it goes right to live..

live uses the same exact preferences page as google

google:
http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en

live:
http://search.live.com/settings.aspx...Default.asp x

maybe a coincidence and im retarded

a lot of the live hits are most likely from the people who use hotmail.

How many times have you been told that Alexa is WRONG! I know this for a fact and if you are a real webmaster you should know this info by now.

I've noticed this before.

Live cunningly looks like Google.

Gotta love Billy McGates and his shitty innovations.

I take it they have scrapped MsDewey.com then?

A lot of hotmail traffic is counted toward live.com .. whereas Google's 90%+ (i think) is there for search.

May be google can win alexa war (lol) by making youtube a subdomain, youtube.google.com

It's only recent too. I first noticed Live a couple weeks ago. At that time it was ranked #1 on Alexa. It always used to be Yahoo #1, Google #2. Live seems to have come from nowehere to almost the top spot.
