At the bottom of the page it says this :

In response to a complaint we received under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaint for these removed results.

Never seen that before!

My God, that's such a fucking joke.
Where do Kazaa get off complaining about copyright infringment - it's just insane!

What's really annoying is that Google will make it so that DMCA complaints affect search results for people outside the US jurisdiction. Excellently, though, they link to the actual complaint they recieved from the lawyers, listing all of the domains they've removed results from!!
