A honey pot term used by Google to catch Microsoft's Bing copying their search results.
When you misspell a word in a search, Google tries to correct it for you. Sometimes, Bing would not catch the misspelling, yet would return the same first result as Google.
To test their hypothesis further, Google created fake spelling corrections, where the gibberish phrase would link to an unrelated page. They then searched for the phrase on Google, while using Internet Explorer with the Bing toolbar installed.

"Hiybbprqag" linked to the unrelated Wiltern Theatre.
A couple of weeks later, a Bing search for hiybbprqag turned up the Wiltern Theatre.
Similar things happened with "juegosdeben1ogrande" (jewelry website) and "delhipublicschool40 chdjob" (a bank)

"Google planted fake words like hiybbprqag in their search engine, then watched them pop up in Bing's results a few months later. Evidently, hiybbprqag is a word meaning 'you got served.'" -Stephen Colbert

Bing.com stealing Google.com's search results. Google planted sting operations with fake words like hiybbprqag and Bing came up with the same results... which means now "hiybbprqag" is Google's way of saying "you've been served".
