Meanwhile that hyphen looks like a little horizontal line to me.....all I need to do is make it an arrow! This used to be the same for the search engine Altavista. If you added an "arrow" as in Alta-Vista you used to end up at a porn site too. The real AltaVista (hands up now so we know the real one!) search engine decided to fix it eventually! <bg>
Gording.
Yeah that's sad.
If you don't know how it works:
Saddos find popular sites - and then buy up domain names similar too them - and wait for people to mistype the urls...
etc: sites like beefcake with hyphens are prime targets because people use a name exactly the same without the hyphen.

--- Willie Westwood No it's just that I'm stupid and I didn't know what it was called. 'm sure the majority of the British public would know what it was actually called. I shall make sure next time I don't call it an arrow! (Not that there will be a next time...) Geeno, The International Spastic.
Oh, then you'll hate me now!
"-" is a dash, a hyphen, or an n-dash "—" is an m-dash. Could also be a long hyphen
