Oh yes, I'm sure they *hate* having more eyeballs see the advertisements in their search results.
But google searches on a single domain don't seem to trigger any advertisements - neither a serious search like "hundred years' war" or a likely ad-keyword such as "golf".
You're not looking very hard -- I see four ads with a search for "golf" and one for "hundred years' war". (Note though that the appearance of ads may vary from hit to hit.)
Anyway, I've gone ahead and signed us up for their Free WebSearch and SiteSearch, so it's all official and we get our logo at the top of the results page (ooooh!)
