Actually, there are several.  When searching NRS for "Internet"
there are several stories about a company which sells Automated teller 
machine services.  Appearantly their stock went up when people thought 
they had something to do with the internet.  The stock dropped when banks
and companies like DigiCash and First Virtual Holdings announced financial
transaction capability over The Internet.

Internet Inc. doesn't even use internet protocol (it uses APPC).
