Yeh - fairplay citrus - i did say "apologies if this has been said before.... " and did a search here before i posted - guess i'll have to search harder next time. Cheers all the same. ;-)
VescotUK 08-07-2002, 10:45 AM Its always like it lol..
The same on aol too.
It all depends on where you look up the info from :)
michaeln 08-07-2002, 10:50 AM Umm it seems those are or once was actual websites. Such as:
http://MICROSOFT.COM.IS.NOT.SEXYCOOL.ORG
It's an old prank, and has nothing to do with "hijacking" microsoft.com. Look again:
MICROSOFT.COM.WILL.CRASH.IN.6MN.ORG
That's not in the microsoft.com domain, it's in 6mn.org. All you have to do is register a nameserver with whatever name you want that creates a sentence ending in your domain name.
VescotUK 08-07-2002, 11:14 AM Too right Jay...
Good advertising too I must say :)
Ok I can tell is is .org, and not the microsoft.com address, but how do they get the MICROSOFT.COM.WILL.CRASH.IN.6MN.ORG address to show up in the whois?
VescotUK 08-07-2002, 04:33 PM Is someone wanting to stick a lovely message up microsofts backend? :)
