In July 1997, during two periods of several days, users around the Internet who typed www.internic.net into their web browsers thinking they were going to the Inter-NIC's web site instead ended up at a web site belonging to the AlterNIC. (The Alter-NIC runs an alternate set of root nameservers that delegate to additional top-level domains with names like med and porn.) How'd it happen? Eugene Kashpureff, then affiliated with the AlterNIC, had run a program to "Poison" the caches of major nameservers around the world, making them believe that www.internic.net's address was actually the address of the AlterNIC web server.
