Microsoft Live Search Spam-Like Referrals Are Still Occurring

In September, we reported that Microsoft's Live Search spam-like referrals are official tests performed by Microsoft and that blocking them could have you delisted from the search results.

A bunch of forum members are still reporting this "abnormal" activity and have seen it for about a month now. Unfortunately, this negatively impacts these users' analytics.

How long is this supposed to last? One member said one week. But a month? What is the purpose?

Forum discussion continues at DigitalPoint Forums.
