Format of the referer comes as follows, with extraneous stripped off the end: (a search for keyword1 keyword2 after having done a search on keywordA keywordB)

[search.msn.com...] ....

An error in my perl script which is pulling keywords out of my log files pulled up
'keywordA keywordB' .. that's how I found it.

I wonder if the prior search (&origq=) is of use to anyone.

The prior search could be extremely useful. It potentially gives you a related search phrase to target. It also potentially gives you a list of sites that failed to meet the surfers expectations, maybe due to irrelevant content or bad descriptions.

I use the word potentially, because the previous search may have been unrelated
