| | VeriSign actively monitors all traffic associated with Site Finder, including DNS queries matching the wildcard entries in.com and.net and associated responses, and all traffic sent to the response server. | | | The DNS is the world-wide phone book which maps the names you see in your web browser (for example www.mysite.com) to an IP address, a number that the computer can use to find the site. | | | In fact, it can be demonstrated for a fact that VeriSign is not ignoring data after the domain name in a URL by typing in, for example: |
