Why is it that when I type fattedcalf.com into the browser bar that I go to Amazon.com?

[purplehayes]

For whatever reason, I typed fattedcalf.com into the URL bar and hit enter and Amazon.com pops up. I check the whois record and it was basically blank.

Any ideas?

it just means that the site has a redirect to amazon.

That is the URL it redirects to...perhaps it's one of those referral things?
