"So no one accidentally got shot in the face when some one's shotgun accidentally went off?" - Sarge, Red vs. Blue

Can someone please point out this "Secret message leading you to Ilovebees.com" in the halo 2 trailer. I can't seem to find it. Yes i know ut's supposed to be secret, but i love bees is over anyway.

It's a good thing I'm a pokemon trainer, and can handle your Jiggly-Puffs.

Here is what you're looking for. It's the Halo 2 theatrical trailer.

From Wikipedia:
I Love Bees began when jars of honey were received in the mail by people who had previously participated in alternate reality games. The jars contained letters leading to the I Love Bees website and a countdown. At around the same time, theatrical trailers for Halo 2 concluded with the Xbox logo and a URL, Xbox.com, that quickly flashed a link to ilovebees.com, ostensibly a hacked site related to beekeeping.
Both events, not connected publicly for several weeks, caused the curious to visit the website ilovebees.com. The site, which appeared to be dedicated to honey sales and beekeeping, was covered in confusing random characters and sentence fragments. Dana, the ostensible webmaster of the ilovebees site, created a weblog stating that something had gone wrong with her website, and the site itself had been hacked. Suspecting that this was a mystery that could be unraveled, Halo and ARG fans spread the link and began to work on figuring out what was going on.


EDIT: You might find these links useful also
