No, that won't work. That'll only send you to Google if you request sitefinder.verisign.com specifically. It will not send you to Google if you misspell the domain. If you wanted to see Google, you would have to have the misspelled domain in your hosts file.

nah, all you need is to enter the following line in your HOSTS file:

216.239.53.99 sitefinder.verisign.com

That way you'll get google's error message and never have to see Verisign's shit again :-)
