Its a feature. In Firefox you can type "keywords" in the address bar. Firefox will then automatically return the first result from google as that page (you can type the word or phrase by itself or you can type http:// before it). "http://" as a search on google happens to be microsoft.com. Try typing "boing" and you'll go to boingboing.net, try http://antichrist and you get some weird geocities website.
