---- Results increase by 2000 every click

I have a site that just got thousands of new pages indexed. But I think I found a bug on one of google's servers...actually about three of the IP addresses of their servers offer the same problem.

Every time I click "search" button with

site:domain.com

in the text box, the results increase by 2000.

So say I have 10,000 results. I click search again, and it goes to 12,000 results. All the way up to 800,000 results, if I keep clicking. Unlimited. Just by continually clicking the search button.

Come back later, and it may be down to 200,000 or so.Click on the search button again, now it's at 202,000, 204,000, etc. All the way up to 800,000 or 1,000,000 if I want.

Anyone else have this problem? I'll record a flash video if you want. It's kinda funny.
