Just doing a search and came across this:

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX - 4:52am
#*$!#*$!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
www.xyz.com/specials - 37k - Apr 27, 2005 - Cached - Similar pages

It only appeared on the first result (which was ours -- whoo hoo). Tried a few other searches and it also came up (not on every search, but on about half of them where one of our sites appeared up top).

It was *not* part of the clickable title -- it appeared after it in grey.

Anyone else see this or know what it is?

You see that now and then in quite a lot of searches.

From what I know it indicated that the page was crawled very recently. The time stamp generaly stays for a short while then reverts back to a normal listing. Only the most recently crawled data has a time stamp.
