    This is rather suspicious (and confirmed by three other people):

    ------------------------------------------------
    $ whois amazon.com

    Whois Server Version 2.0

    Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
    with many different competing registrars. Go to
    http://www.internic.net
    for detailed information.

    AMAZON.COM.ZZZZZ.GET.LAID.AT.WWW.SWINGINGCOMMUNITY.COM
    AMAZON.COM.MORE.INFO.AT.WWW.BEYONDWHOIS.COM
    AMAZON.COM.IS.N0T.AS.1337.AS.WWW.GULLI.COM
    AMAZON.COM
    ------------------------------------------------

    whois for yahoo.com and google.com yield similar results.

    I expect this means that DNS has been compromised somewhere.
