As most of you know now, MSN have disabled the link command due to misuse. For the full story, check this link out:

Now, if you really cant live without it, it is possible to bypass MSN via hotbot and still get the MSN results.

If you go to www.hotbot.com and stick the link:xxx command in the search box, you will get the MSN results. I am not sure how long this loophole will be open, but in the meantime it seems to work fine. If it is not abused, it might work for longer.

I noticed this a couple of days already. The first thing that came into my mind was MSN tries to limit the display of backlinks like Google.

Thanks for the link.

It is a shame that they had to take this tool down as it was my favourite backlink tool. Hopefully they will be able to bring it back in some shape or form soon.
