I was talking to my friend about domain name squatting and people who had misspellings of well-known websites. He brought up that Microsoft had never purchased http://www.microsoftcorporation.com . Out of curiosity I visited the link. It turned out that a hsoting company had taken it. What was weirder than that was that it redirects to the company I use, http://www.ipowerweb.com . Small web-world isn't it?

interesting. i wonder why microsoft hasn't done anything about that.
I'd think they'd be one of the first companies to go after copyrighted names.
