 		i'm taking it you used that bug that allows you to display any site as any other site...so it just looks like microsoft.com. i think it's an active x thing?

 		well, maybe something like that. as far as I know, that's not the microsoft's page, and it seems to still be in CCN.

P.S. and contrary to popular belief, I didn't fall for it

 		its a bug in how IE deals with urls

http://www.microsoft.com%00@www.godcentric.com

(maybe the characters mightn't post here)
but anyway it won't show the actual url after those characters.

 		i for one am glad i never touch IE or windows, a browser which does this is so incomprehensibly stupid i cannot imagine why such a feature (bug?) (still) exists.
