Brilliantly done :)

Edit:
As usual, I will reiterate an important bit of advice... just in case you have trouble remembering:
NEVER read YouTube comments. They are very depressing.

I bet it has done more harm than good.. from people trying to see if goggle is real.

* won't dare ..

but uhm..

is it real? :P

What's www.go*gle.com ?

We need a volunteer to click it.

It redirects to google. Has done for years.

I shall bravely click the link.

Wait here - I'll let you all know what happens.

Sniffing nora!!!

It most certainly does not redirect me to Google.com

I get this woman on my screen:

Right, but I knew someone would click if I said it did. It sounds believable :P

What the hell is this:

I would've expected that ball-bitch of yours :P

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typosquatting

"Google's anti-typosquatting defense is incomplete; as of April 2006, "http://www.goggle.com" redirects to a suspicious anti-spyware vendor rather than to Google. The site attempts to spam users with a popup and foist an executable download upon them without any further user action."

I guess I won't have to try that goggle link. ^_^

Well, I am just going to click everything all night and sap their bandwith.

Yeh, they are sure going to get tired of me - sooner than they think.

Yeah! Download that spyware. That'll teach them!

Althought you tube has cool stuff on it... my god... it's the world human garbage heap for idiots and retards. I read through most the comments.

"lol, :XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD windozze :XDD hax0r linuz rulz lol"

Surely people like that don't exist? Surely...

The above is a perfect examnple of malware:-

"trust me,just click me once, I'm nice really..."

Then bang, digital VD for all! :) lol

I tried that goggle link but firefox blocks everything.
It just looks like a scam webpage to me.

Tried goggle in Safari. It seems like the video might be true. Got lots of pop-ups, a notice saying my computer was unsafe do I want to install anti-spyware tools and more crap. If you're on Windows using IE, don't go to goggle.com

quitefunny thanks. I've mistype goggle plenty of times.

I'm a rotter, ain't I?

EDIT: It genuinely did used to redirect to Google, but I hadn't tried it in quite some time. So I was still a bit of a rotter, but it wasn't intentionally mean.

Anyone tested this with IE7?
Does it still let 'all hell break loose' ?

It didn't here. I got a dialog box pop up asking me if i wanted to install some adware program. I closed it and closed the webpage off. I have an adblocker though, so maybe that helped. IE RULEZZZZZZZ

I just downloaded IE7 so I could give it a try and even when I disabled the popup blocker I only got one popup. Nothing tried to download :(

I guess this is the new kind of extreme sport - entering an adware page with IE ;)
