Contrast in Search Engine Results - Phew!

[RF]

I have just been astonished by the difference between two search
engines: Yahoo.com and Google.

The search was for: "The disk structure is corrupted and unreadable"

In the Google search it was just like a flock of vultures coming in for
a feast - pure commercial with very little technical information.

In the search process I went to M*Shaft and got nothing useful.

Yahoo's results were the opposite - lots of technical info and far less
commercial AND there was a M*Shaft article precisely on what I was
looking for on the first page. Here is the URL:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311724

Are M*Shaft and Google cooperating? Whether yes or no, Google is off my
list of search engines.

Now you know which engine to support.

First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed,
and third, it is accepted as self-evident"

Try searching: "disk structure" corrupted unreadable

http://www.google.com/search?&q="disk+structure"+corrupted+unreadable
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p="disk+structure"+corrupted+unreadable

The link you cited "http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311724" is
more specific.

Now, try searching: NTFS partition corrupt unreadable

http://www.google.com/search?&q=NTFS+partition+corrupt+unreadable
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=NTFS+partition+corrupt+unreadable

Also, try excluding the following terms from all of your searches,
and see if that doesn't clean things up a bit:

"free trial" "free download" "free offer" "free to try" shareware price

http://www.google.com/search?&as_q=...free-offer+free-to-try+shareware+price&num=30

BlindSearch says Yahoo finds the page you wanted.
(Altho Bing and Yahoo are business partners.)

Bing and Google side by side

Your search engines seem to be busted, try these:
