At my previous workplace we had this automatic proxy configuration 
thing for Internet Explorer. I don't know why or what, but there 
was a bug in the script where IE would do a WINS lookup for hostnames 
with domains of a certain length. I think it was smaller than 8 or 
something like that.

I'm sorry, but I don't have more information.
