I just accidentally typed imadb.com and after 2 redirects (I think) I ended up at: http://dp.000.in/


Can someone explain why dp.000.in points to the local host and what was the reasoning behind the redirects?

I believe it's called DNS rebinding attacks.

No need to be afraid, apart from that: smallnetbuilder.com/security/security-features/… . If you're using Firefox, install NoScript (see hackademix.net/2010/07/28/…) –  weeheavy Oct 18 '10 at 9:41

Someone must have registered that in public DNS with an A record of I am seeing this too when I do an nslookup for dp.000.in.

whois for 000.in doesn't reveal much. Poking around with some similar fqdns (do.000.in and dq.ooo.in) brings up the IP address, but there aren't any websites there.

That doesn't really answer the question.
