My Explanation
RO is the romanian TLD so a site ending in .ro is hosted in romania.
This guy buys a website with the domain ro.ro
Since the URL prefix is just a sub-domain, technically he can use any prefix, and obviously he has.
He doesn't have to code in all possible letter combination just as long as it is in his domain, he can redirect it to the same page.
As an example:
video.google.com
maps.google.com
news.google.com
they are all owned by google
I could be completely wrong since I've never made a website and have never even tried to learn HTML but from my knowledge of how the internet works I could assume that this would be how he can do it.
I didnt think of it like that...sounds like that might be right...
Like for example my uni website is www.kent.ac.uk
and the computer science site is www.cs.kent.ac.uk
basically im thinking the ".ro.ro" is the same as the "kent.ac.uk"
and
the "www.(insert website title here)." is the same as the "www.cs."
http://www.ro.ro/ will be the main page of the site.
Here is the breakdown
.uk is the TLD (Top Level Domain)
ac.uk is an SLD (Second Level Domain) just like the more common "co.uk"
"kent" is the website domain (basically the name of your website)
"cs" would be the subdomain which is what this guy is using to redirect anything to the end of the internets page.

But doing this, even automatically, for all letter combinations, even a random http://odnbodnbodnbosmnfovmsqpgjaetgjheroigehnrgilrengesrngjoprjnriqwj.ro.ro/ (it really works) would take a lot of time.I didnt think of it like that...sounds like that might be right...

though Im not sure how they would have got the www.(name).ro.ro with the (name) bit whatever is entered to redirect lol...

well I don't know exactly how websites work but I know in boolean logic you can have an asterisk as a wildcard. This guy is probably using a wildcard to encompass any possible combination of letters.
Haha LOLoddly enough, if you would have added 1 more letter to that random URL, it wouldnt have worked![]()
