| Oh, more stuff that is somehow Microsoft's fault?
Ok, so IE is guessing. And the problem really is IE? Oh, what's that? It's really just a goofed up DNS server? Awe darnit... Oh well, let's make it Microsoft's fault anyway, besides, everybody will jump on the bandwagon and it will be ok.
Come on people. yeah.com is being tricky and there is busted DNS server. Who's fault is that really?

| Maybe you missed it. All you have to do is leave searching from the address bar on, and mistype the name of a webpage. Then your mistyped xxx.com goes to xxx.com.net and then xxx.com.com then eventually xxx.com.org, and then you're hit.
It also happens that address bar searching is enabled by default. It's nothing to start pointing fingers about, I wouldn't call it a really big deal, but if you want to be melodramatic about it, it is a Microsoft product, so do the math.
