Lycos has several databases from which it delivers search results. The Web Results section can be confusing. For common queries, the first listing under "Web Results" is a collection of links from inside the Lycos Network and specific advertisers. Then, for about 50,000 keywords, there are ten listings from LookSmart. These are called "commercial listings" and are basically ads. Then come the results from the FAST Web search database.
