Fairly common trick these days...

Host multiple sites on the same physical box, and then decode "so what
_DNS_
name were they _really_ looking for"? to work out which set of pages
to
display.

I can see it OK.

Here's a question for the TCP/IP experts:

If I tracert to www.automatedhome.co.uk I get an IP address of
216.167.90.227.  So if I go to http://216.167.90.227 I get Laser's site
(I
know Li kindly hosts Mark's site) - why is this?  Just curious.

James
