Link:E3vddf4Xwww.thedomain.com etc...
Anybody have an idea what that is about?
Do you think G is indexing automatic rank checking programs or specific IPs for abuse?
Thanks group.

Google can show you the following information for this URL:
As long as I can remember Google has done this on the web page information results. I haven't seen it when entering link:www.domain.com into the search box or toolbar.
I may be may be mistaken but I think doing a link: search used to fail, instead you had to type in the url and then Google would offer the choice of a link: search and a random sequence featured as part of the url.

Doing my link searches...
A little off topic... but I have noticed lately in the 'newest' algorithm lots of realllly old links showing up. I sent a report to G about 10 links to my old site that have been dead for at least 5 years.
The company that hosts the old dead links has a redirect... but wouldn't the the mighty "OZ" behind the black curtain (my name for the current algorithm), recognize an inbound link pointing to something that has nothing to do with what the link is/was about?
Dorthy... there's no place like home :-)

Edited to add this info...
I just got a note back from G support about info I put in March 24th about a completely different topic... so just incase you have put in a request etc... response time looks to be about 2 weeks. Not a complaint... just a point of info if you are waiting for a response.. I thank the support team for responding.
Looks like Google has gone Billy gates and has no control over their index.
There is definitely a "manual filter" being used as opposed to what they say at G.... We are looking at sites that the "OZ" algorithm puts the button on specific sites to use such a filter.
For example... a specific site is 'deemed' as non-Google material... The algorithm is then set to that site's material... and POOF... gone.
We have seen over the years "Locked" sites in indexes no matter what they do... they don't move.
I think we are seeing the "OZ" algorithm as the result of this behavior in that a lock gets set a specific site according to the "book smart" street stupid mentalities that are making the algs...
Basically... what we see are supposedly 200 IQs on Donald Trumps show the Apprentice
represented by the algorithm doing really dumb stuff.
So tell me OH guru's of the "OZ" algorithm.... ever had a "REAL" job?
I doubt it.
