oh dear,

people have let their imaginations die haven't they... if you type ANYTHING
before org.com it will resolve the same way... http://blahblahblah.org.com
it is acheived by simply putting at * instead of an actual subdomain... so
it's basically *.org.com will resolve to the website.. its common
practise... i do it on my servers quite often...
