I am seeing this happen with regular searches as well, not always but a few times randomly.

I'm seeing this more and more since the start of this week. Actually this search engine is now almost unusable, because when this happens, almost all of the results are completely unrelated, or otherwise unreadable, being filled with HTML entities. Only some results are vaguely related but still not what I'm searching for.

Damnit, I switched away from Google for a good reason, I'm not willing to give that up, but DDG has to be at least usable or it's pointless as it's a search engine. It must be able to search.

I've made the switch to Blekko for the time being.
Thank you for the tip, I'll look into it. I also hope DDG will be fixed because right now, I'm having a hard time finding anything with it. :(
