    You might be using an ISP that fakes DNS results in order to give you a spam page helpful search page instead of an error for nonexistant names.

    What does a ping Nonexistentsite.com result in on the machine where you tested your Python code?

    I tested this except I used www.google.com instead. This came up with 302 Found. After a bit of googling I found out that 302 Found means that there is a redirection. This probably means that users are redirected to the right Google site for their reigon for example www.google.co.uk for UK. The 302 - Moved Permanently is probably the same thing but it just comes up different for IronPython.

    edit -

    It exists because Google is still running that server and is performing redirections.

    Running your code in Cygwin's Python, I get an error for Nonexistentsite.com, so I'm not sure if something weird is happening with IronPython.

    Google.com is Moved permanently because Google has a system of redirects for their main page. For example, if they detect you are in the UK, google.com will redirect you to google.co.uk (untested, I am in the US, but that is what I have read). If I try your code with stackoverflow.com or another site that doesn't have something as complicated set up as Google, I get a 200 OK response.
