Content Type: text/plain

Lycos, the search engine people, have a web site with the url:

http://3626046468/

I've never seen an address like that.

I assume it's a "registered" name (just like "www.lycos.com") which has
to be looked up by a Domain Name Server. Who registers names like
this? I tried the Network Solutions "whois" page, and they have no
record of it.
