Lately when I was searching something on Google I came accross something very surprising, i.e. I was getting different results from the same search engine in different browsers, I have both Firefox (FF) and Internet Explorer (IE) and I generally keep an instance of both open..

For example if I search for my name on FF and IE, I get results in different order and even the total number of results also differ..

As it can be seen in the below picture that in FF my weblog is coming at the top :) but in IE it is coming at the third rank :( 

I don't really know why this is happening and whether it is intentionally done by Google or it is a bug, but since the search engine is the same ideally it should show similar results irrespective of browsers..

It would be great, if anybody can give me the valid reason behind this.. ;)
