It's also quite an intuitive domain name - keyserver.com
(an alias for keyserver.net). So stick keyserver in the address bar of IE and
keyserver.net appears.
If the browser doesn't add the .com, keyserver.org is for distributed
computing DNS keyservers (not sure why they call them keyservers though),
keyserver.net is the next in line in most people's 'blind' domain searching.
