Barry Schwartz talks of a forum thread which published an email from Live.com to a publisher: (From Live.com) "Your site is acquiring links through posting to or exchanging links with other sites that are unrelated to your site content. Various techniques which attempt to acquire unrelated links in order to increase ranking are considered spamming and as a result your Web site has been excluded from our index. Please contact Live.com once you’ve removed these offending links and we will reevaluate the situation."

Barry Schwartz adds on his blog: “Microsoft is apparently making an effort in combatting search engine spam. However, I believe that the way Google handles unrelated links to your site isn't banning it but simply not counting said links. Unless it is a clear and transparent attempt for you to deliberately hurt the search results.”
