Those of you that have create web pages might get a kick out this:

Someone I work with was creating a set of web pages and called me
awhile back with a concern that one of our servers might have been hacked.
She said that when she clicked on some of the links on her pages that
it was going to a porno site.   I checked out her web pages and found out
the reason why.  It seems that while creating the pages she decided to
use some "placeholder" text for some of the links until she determined the
"real" urls.  Instead of something like "http://www.dummy.com" she just
put in "xxx".  When she clicked on a link with a modern browser that string
expanded to "http://www.xxx.com"...
