As a follow up to this, one of the large Australian ISP's has just 
introduced a DNS redirection "service" for all home customers.

"/The BigPond-branded landing page provides BigPond customers with 
organic search results, sponsored links, display advertisements and 
intelligent recommendations, all derived from the invalid domain input - 
much more helpful and friendly than a nasty 404 page error./"
