Catholics looking for diocese's Web site find porn instead
Posted: Friday, May 18, 2001
CLEVELAND (AP) -- People searching for the Web site of Cleveland's Roman Catholic diocese are instead being linked to hard-core pornography.
To solve the problem, the diocese has informed the region's nearly 1 million Catholics that its Web address has changed, and has asked people to remove any link to the old address, now a pornography site.
When the diocese switched to a new Web address it let the old domain name expire, to save the $75 annual fee. The name was grabbed by a porn site operator.
