    How is this done?

    Sometimes when i type in a keyword, like thesaurus, in the browser address bar, it will automatically go to thesaurus.com. How does this happen? Sometimes it does this, and then sometimes it goes to a google/yahoo search results page. Anyone know how this ".com" auto-association is done?

    Your right, if there is no

    testsite.com

    then it searches google for the first site that comes up as

    testsite

    and will load that one.

    i.e. test-site.com
