    Oh.. well you won't hear about that. JupiterMedia is part of that elite organization -- NSA. They exist and everyone knows about it but they don't exist and no one knows.

    Look at the URL:

    http://www.2600.gov@207.99.30.232/

    the @ symbol means it is being redirected, and it NOT really a .gov site for those who might believe this

    Not ruining for *everyone* else, Opera gives a warning about entering a site with an username anyway. Opera ruins the joke? Go figure. A good security feature nonetheless.
