Ken;

A quick search of the InterNIC's Whois service reveals that "topchoice.com" 
appears to be the "parent" domain for "zuiko.com".  I suspect you're using an 
older version of a browser -- one that doesn't recognize or support so-called 
"virtual" host names.  Thus, you're being re-directed to the parent (the one 
that's got its own real honest-to-goodness physical IP address).

If you're using a version of Netscape prior to 3 (I *believe*), this could be 
the problem.  Or if you're using one of the "proprietary" browsers from AOL 
etc., that might be the problem too (although I know nothing about these 
browsers).

Otherwise, I don't know.  When I surf to "www.zuiko.com", I get what I expect 
-- John H.'s page.  I'm using Netscape 4.04.  Hope this helps.

Garth
