Is that any better of an idea than using new.net in the first place?  It
probably would have worked, for some definition of "worked", had you not
deliberately made it fail.  That's dishonest, and if your users have any
brains, they'll find friends for whom it does work, and will come
complaining to you - and rightfully so.
