John Zuccarini has learned the high price of misspelling Disneyland.
The Internet ''mouse-trapper,'' who registered websites like
http://www.dinseyland.com <http://www.dinseyland.com> and http://www.teltubbies.com
<http://www.teltubbies.com> and redirected unsuspecting children and
others to ****, was sentenced Thursday to 30 months in federal prison
by
a judge in Manhattan, where the investigation originated.
See

or
http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/local/states/florida/counties/broward_county/8052075.htm
articles. Maybe the "wild-west" of the web is getting tamed a bit?

I checked out the msispelled domain URL's above before posting this to check
that they were not pointing to **** sites... They are not...
