You could try to modify .htaccess to redirect from one domain you own to another domain you wish. Lots of how to's on the net, google it.

Heres a cool dirty trick for windows xp ^____^

If you want to redirect a certain website to a different one, this might be helpful.
Let's say you want to give a prank to a friend by redirecting yahoo.com to google.com.

First, lookup for www.google.com's IP address at www.zoneedit.com/lookup.html
or any DNS tool you prefer.

You will get a similar IP address: 72.14.253.147

Now go back to Windows desktop, click Start > Run
and type in:
notepad c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\host

At the bottom of the file, paste the ip address and the url of the target website, seperate it with a "tab"
example:
72.14.253.147 yahoo.com
72.14.253.147 www.yahoo.com

*** Save the file.

Now restart your browser and go visit yahoo.com.

This won't work if you have anti-spyware installed. This method is used by most spywares, so be careful ^____^
