So... if you mistype the Openoffice.org url by missing out an F, you get to a Mega Bible Studies website.

WOW!!!!!

I actually came across this yesterday - but by accidentally going to a different "misspelled" site...

http://www.w3school.com (should be w3schools)

I think it must be some kind of sinister plot...

Pretty misguided, if you ask me. The site is obviously aimed at people who have gone somewhere by mistake (see the adresses). As soon as (after a few seconds) they realize their mistake, they could very well apply the thought to the entire site, thus bringing them even further away from their goal.

There are a lot of odd sites that have cropped up as mistypo-urls for us too. My friend was telling me about them last night, but I have no need to go look for ad-parked typo pages myself Smile
