And possibly more.

While I cannot provide consipiracy theories or tinfoil hats, I can provide all URLs hosted under the same IP as google.com. Look at cashcarrier.net - maybe google wants to replace all US currency with 'Google Currency' or Gurrency!

Or how about this :-)
http://gogole.com/

No, gogole.com is actually a very sophisticated domain squatter; here's the proof: link

after reading the entire Usenet thread

Domain gogole.com? Well, it seems to work and looks like Google.... Yup, whois verifies it. Guess they decided to use those anti-immitation registered domains.

The source code isn't provided, unfortunately. But I am a Java guy, and the Java language does include encryption functionality. However, after reading the entire Usenet thread, he makes note that bandwidth is an issue, and even says he might host it on SourceForge because it has MySQL capability. Since he wants to conserve bandwidth, and most probably CPU time (reserve all he can for the calculations), my guess is he didn't use encryption, and just compresses and does something else funky with the stream back to the server. I'm just guessing though, I'm not going to go to the bother of analyzing the applet, sniffing the outbound packets, etc. This is a very cool project. I'm just a little enraged with myself for not having thought this up sooner ;-)

whilst typing in 'google' i have often typed in gogole by accident. it takes you to a confusingly dissimilar place.

I was attempting to search at google.com and instead I accidentally typed in gogole.com. This sends me to Bill Gate's personal website at microsoft.com, framed in an ad. Weird, eh?

Even stranger, I don't seem to remember an ad the first time I went there...
