Oh, my bad then.  I thought you were saying that the sites typed
incorrectly, which brought up the search 'helper', were then added to 'safe
sites.'  You are correct that ie.search.msn.com is indeed a default 'safe
sites'.  Only admins and system have full control over that registry
setting, so I think we are OK there.
