Have to agree. Leeches they are.

As a webmaster community we could potentially fight this back, and quite easy. I am sure there's effort out there to create an Open Source search engine. All they have to do is ensure they will not use advertising model (they could make money leasing search algorythm, donations, research grants, etc.). All we as professionals have to do is start linking to that engine from our sites - and boom, just like FireFox it will take 10% of the web.

Now, if that would be a good Search Engine as well...
