Hi everyone. I was just looking at a site and it had a ,com instead of a .com , how is this done and is it legal. If so, where can I register at? Thanks for your time all

teeceo,
It is not possible you saw a domain like that. You must be confused.

Don't use MIE and type in ebay,com and there it will br.

Your browser must correct the ,com with .com
what browser are you running???

I know it is possible on some brosers to simply type www.ebay and it will search for
www.ebay.com
www.ebay.net
www.ebay.org etc etc

but it is not possible to set up dns records for a domain using ,com

I'm using AOL and this is what I see as a redrict:
<snipped url>

You tell me?

I believe what might be happening is AOL is playing with you. AOL is your ISP. They must see you want Ebay so they are redirecting you to their own personal ebay where they get a kick back. Looks like a large corporation may be using DNS errors.

With Opera and using AOL as my ISP I just get an error with the "URL"

Which browser are you using teeceo?
