"Microsoft is actually running the site on IIS under Windows, but they use the Akamai distributed caching system that runs Linux. Our detection software gets conflicting reports and lists the site as "Microsoft/IIS Linux", despite this being an impossible combination." - from a worker of Netcraft |

ISTR it's something like some reverse proxies running on linux to handle the load, feeding back into a massive "green acres" pee cee server farm. That's why the netcraft OS detector comes up with linux, even though the ultimate target is an iis box in a windoze server farm. |
