adCenter Display URL Optional?

Came across an interesting adCenter ad this morning that omits the display url. Last I checked it was required element of an ad...wonder if this is a test, glitch or something else all together. I have not been able to recreate an ad like this with any other query.

Jeremy,

Your fundamental problem is that you are assigning logic to MSN paid search results. :)

Ok, someone ask Brad what's up with his MSN ads....PS: And I second David's comments.

Okay, that is weird. I'm curious as well. Please post if you fund anything out. I have a few clients on MSN and that never happened.

Second question...why wouldn't anyone want a display URL?

I third David's comments

I don't think the display URL is omitted. The last line (receive your free copy today) is actually the display URL. Msn seem to let you get away with writing anything in the display URL until someone gets round to manually checking the ad, yes they still manually check your ads!

Meshwan, I tried writing a line of text in the display url field in adCenter before I had posted this and it was auto rejected. I just tried it again with the same result.
