OT: Internet question

| My wife asked me the following question and I didn't have an
| explanation for this.
|
| We are now located in Maryland
|
| At her job, she does a search on strasser wood (this is a wood
| bathroom cabinet mfg).  She is taken to a site that has absolutely
| nothing to do with Strasser.
|
| If she goes to optonline.com (cablevision on Long Island) web site and
| executes the same search, she get strasser's web page.
|
| If I do the same search through Comcast's home page, I get to
| strasser's home page.
|
| Any ideas why her search fails at work when she tries using her
| employer's home page?

I don't understand how you use an ISP to conduct a search, rather than a
search site, like google, brainboost, dogpile, etc.
