There are no shortage of people like that. Get use to it.

I've seen some toolbar search boxes that hide the address bar so surfers are stuck "searching" for their site.
Clients call all the time asking why another site shows up when they type in their web address (new sites). I thought it was some advanced form of hacking until i realized they were all using browser search boxes.
To help cut down on calls I buy the keyword "www.whatever-their-domain-is.com" with their search campaigns.
