Because of spyware on the Google homepage ads were displayed
The world's most famous search engine never shows ads on its main search page, but that didn’t stop Cingular Wireless and Travelocity from displaying its ads on Google.com (without Google’s knowledge) last month.

Despite their commitment to the attorney general, Cingular and Travelocity continue to resort to the use of spyware. Edelman claims that these two firms continue to receive traffic from some widespread spyware modules, which violates Assurances of Discontinuance.
