we should absolutely lobby MS to remove that functionality, in all their

I think the bigger issue is retooling folks to understand that just
dropping any-old thing into a 'location' bar is just not useful some large

use google, msnsearch, yahoo, blah-search-engine-de-jour.  Just putting in
'fobartools.com' is likely to not get you the content you desire.
