<snort> When will people stop falling for this?
Remember that when you register a second-level domain, you can assign any
subdomains you want through your own DNS service. The owners of KLUGE.ORG,
for example, could add RAYMOND.D.MERENIUK.IS.A.MORON.KLUGE.ORG. If
Microsoft itself had such a juvenile sense of humor, it could strike back
with LINUS.SUCKS.DONKEY.BALLS.MICROSOFT.COM. A few hours to propagate,
and
it's visible to everyone.
Duh.
