LOL - BMW threatens adult search engine
 

BMW is trying to clean up its act on the web. The German car maker sent a letter of complaint to an adult search engine based in the Netherlands, asking it to remove references to its cars that appear in search listings for adult content.
The search site, AskJolene.com, lets users search for keywords, such as the name of a porn star, and produces links to picture galleries hosted on other sites. It is like a risque sister to AskJeeves.com, although the two are not related.

A search for BMW produces eight gallery listings. One shows a woman tied up on the hood of a car being sprayed with a hose. Another includes a story about a woman who tries a "dating" service and is whisked off by a man in a BMW.

The car maker has objected that its trademarks are being infringed. Including its name in the listings is "detrimental to the distinctive character" of the BMW brand, the company said in the letter it sent Monday. It gave the search engine two days to remove the listings and block access to the offending galleries.
