Question Question about search results

I put in a search for "A & B". Along with receiving the results for "A & B", I also received an overwhelming number of results for girls who swallow, get laid tonight, etc.

While this wouldn't be unusual if the search terms were at all related, I really couldn't see any connection. Neither could Limewire. Pointing the cursor at any of these results raised a comment: "not related to A & B".

Does anyone know how I could wind up with a wealth of totally nonrelated results?

If you want to avoid the porn results, make sure that 'ignore adult content' is ticked in tools > options > keywords.
You can also add specific words to the keyword filter (eg laid)...here are some more tips for that!

Thank you birdy!

I figured they were fake. I'm not offended by porn, but was puzzled @ how the most unrelated search term could result in something so unrelated (search "popcorn" get "men well hung", search keyword "comedy", get "my teenage sister doing our cul-de-sac").

There's a heck of alot I don't know about programming, so how they put together those results to generate with unrelated search terms is probably way beyond my skill level. Go figure at them thinking people searching for "popcorn" or "comedy" really are looking for porn. It's just like tv advertising, only without the car ads.
