Re: Give them a inch...

It's not the 'exact same thing' as what you are getting at. There is a difference between a browser's default search engine and settings being told to search from the browser's address bar than it is a DNS server redirecting traffic based on a 404 or 'No Domain Found' result.

This will also interfere with your desire to use your own search engine's default "search from address bar" feature because the DNS records of Earthlink will always return a result. Seems to me that their defeating the RFC on the internet for how DNS is supposed to function, they are encroaching on the rights of the end user to use their own search engine AND it's taking business away from google, yahoo, msn and other search engines out there.
