I tried to search right now "Xoodoo".

Google gave me more than 2 pages of results, while Bing gave me only 1 page.

After that, both Google and Bing provided countless pages full of results about Hoodoo, Voodoo, Zoodoo and the like.

The impossibility of making exact searches is what annoys me most in modern search engines.

I might make a typo sometimes, but I would prefer to correct myself when that happens, instead of the search engine always assuming that I am a moron that cannot type, thus offering every time "helpful" corrections.

I tried to repeat your experiment. I entered "xoodoo", surrounded by quotation marks into the Google search bar. I got 29 pages of results. From what I can tell by the previews, every result matches the string "xoodoo" and not any other similar string. Are you sure you are using the exact search functionality and not just typing the word into the search bar?
