MSN Says Live.com Referral Bug "Not By Design"

Friday we reported that Live.com Is Not Passing Referer Information, the realization about this in the SEO and Webmaster community sent ripples throughout many of the forums. MSNdude replied to the thread at WebmasterWorld stating that this was a bug.

This is NOT by design. We're looking into it. Thanks for telling us.

So rest assured, I am sure there will be a fix pretty quickly. Well, not over the weekend, but hopefully some time today or early this week.

Continued forum discussion at WebmasterWorld.

Is it me or Microsoft cannot release a software piece without something seriously wrong in it ???????
It must be some kind of habit for them....

With all the months of testing - they could not even have done a simple search and analyze the referrer data -before releasing it?????
