Firefox bug: I’m Feeling Lucky
A bug in Firefox that annoys the absolute shit out of me can be found here. This bug has proven to be not Mozilla’s fault, but rather Google’s as the search engine giant redirects clients to useless websites. When an invalid URL or search query is entered into Firefox’s address bar, Google is called to do a “I’m Feeling Lucky” search. This used to work for me and it still does for others. But a small fraction of users either get directed straight to Microsoft.com or for me BuyDomains (I aint linking cause I hate this f*cking website). If your using Firefox, see what happens (incorrect url) to yourself. The only fix at the moment is to change Google from your default search engine.

I’m finding way more than just microsoft & buydomains. I’m getting what seems to be completely random urls most of the time (often unrelated entirely to the query). (Firefox/Mac)
