Issues with Google "site:" searching?

Has anyone else had problems with using the "site:" directive on Google recently?

Lately when I have been trying to search something like "site:winworldpc.com aldus pagemaker" to go directly to that page, it just ignores the site: part and instead gives me random web results.

It is rather intermittent, and seems to do it more in my older browsers. And, yes, I double check to make sure I spelled WinWorldPC.com correctly.

That is a big problems since WinWorld's built in site search is still offline.

    Hi SomeGuy, it works fine for me. It returns the various PageMaker download links. Same for Lotus, WordPerfect, Basic, etc. Cheers!

    Also works fine for me.

    Well, this is mostly in my Newmoon/serpent browsers. Everything is breaking now. They just broke the ability to load Gmail (it sits and spins at the load page, but never goes to the inbox). Grumble, grumble.
