I am thinking you stole some crack from that corrupted computer. This thread isn't pointless. JLuke is trying to find out all the domain name meanings. Stop spamming threads and putting people down.

.gov= a goverment agency's site.com= a company's site

.net= a buisness's site

.com= companies site

.gov isnt always a government agency. It can be an authorized organiztion.

.com does not stand for company, its stands for communication

.net is not always a buisness site, explosm.net for example, is non-profit and is not a buisness


You obviously did hardly any research on this
