So just put up with it.

And how long did it take you to check out the behaviour of all these
millions of websites?

Figure *what* out, exactly? Different websites often exist at the same IP
address and websites frequently serve different content in the "www"
subdomain. Here are some random examples:

http://www.ritualistic.com = 69.17.116.118
http://www.steveforman.com = 69.17.116.118

http://www.com != http://www.www.com

Google has no way of telling if you ever plan to serve different content in
these domains, so it's indexed them both.

alt.internet.search-engines is a good place to ask questions about search
engines. And if you have a question about the functioning of your web host's
servers, perhaps you could try asking your web host.

Your point being?? Actually don't answer that -- just take your
complaints/queries somewhere more suitable.
