Try wwwiithaca.edu.com

Any unrecognised name followed by .edu.com takes you to the
same default page.  So it's clear they've explicitly blocked
the names asked for, but any misspelled variant of the name
will go to the default.  But not to the customised page we
were complaining about.


For instance http://letsallgopartyatpanam.edu.com/


So the "www" in Terry's example above is a red herring.

Probably not worth the effort of complaining.
