http ?

I stumbled across this a few times.

When I enter http://http://www.google.de/ into my location bar (or click a link containing the double http://) I end up at …

… just wait.
Why would anybody do this anyway ?
Well, some webforms prepend http:// if you enter an URL (and tell you to ommit it),
but they don’t check if you already prepended it.

So that site gets a lot of traffic.

And the winner is ?

microsoft.com

I’m not sure (yet) why, but I’m sure you will tell me…
