Microsoft's Internet Explorer automatically redirects users' mistyped URL queries to their MSN Search page. Though a user can reconfigure their browser to use a different search tool, Google, one of MSN's biggest rivals, is not in the list. However, on their web site, Google has explained how to make their search engine the IE default for mistyped urls. http://www.google.com/options/defaults.html

stypo gives the possible traffic typo's can have $ Microsoft has released a tool to control if others were using the misspelling of others while searching the web and registered wrongtyped versions of your domainnames. Mostly those pages have just ads, searchfiles and spyware to install on your machine. http://research.microsoft.com/URLTracer/ When a user visits a Web site, her browser may be instructed to visit other third-party domains without her knowledge. Some of these third-party domains raise security, privacy, and safety concerns. The Strider URL Tracer, available for download, is a tool that reveals these third-party domains, and it includes a Typo-Patrol feature that generates and scans sites that capitalize on inadvertent URL misspellings, a process known as typo-squatting. The tool also enables parents to block typo-squatting domains that serve adult ads on typos of children's Web sites and how they work is explained here
