Today I was doing a search on www.msn.com for a single word (a company name).
MSN reported 553 results and showed me results 1 to 15 with the usual Next link for page 2. When I clicked on the link then I got a could not find any results message. A few minutes later I tried the link again, and suddenly it worked as it is supposed to.
I know that it is still a Beta (when is anything software related no a Beta?), but that kind of behaviour is a bit odd.

It could have also been because of 'Net congestion too Bernhard. Hard to say without having run a tracert at the exact moment you got the strange behavior.

I doubt it was internet congestion, otherwise I wouldn't get the MSN search page telling me it couldn't find any results for that typed in phrase.
It happened again earlier.
Either the whole system is just plain buggy (as expected of any Beta), or they have internal problems which would be part of the Beta issue and hopefully not ongoing.
