| So what kind of company had it before, and what sorts of things were they doing with it? _________________ "I love peacenicks, they're so easy to conquer." --Ivan J Ironfist, the Dictator

One of those domain hijackers. The domain officially belongs to Computer City. It has been for many, many years now.
They notified their provider they wanted to switch to another. Without notifying that provider canceled the domain registration. One of those domain hijackers was inline to register it. But because this kind of practice is unlawful, the domain eventually went back to Computer City( after some legal action).
And they weren't doing anything with it. They just wanted to sell it. Which is unlawful too. I read something about that recently. Last edited by PulsatingQuasar on 04-Nov-2006 at 09:35 AM. Last edited by PulsatingQuasar on 04-Nov-2006 at 09:31 AM.

Ah, so that's what it was...
Well, I'm glad to hear that that sort of hijacking is now illegal.
Hmmmm... but is it illegal everywhere, or just in that country? _________________ "I love peacenicks, they're so easy to conquer." --Ivan J Ironfist, the Dictator

| I have also a small problem in hat direction with "amigaclub.be"
Someone is sending massmails with "x@amigaclub.be" , where x is most of the time some random keycombination. Now everytime such a mail gets bounced because of a non-existent adress or because it's recognized as spam ,that server sends back a notification that ofcours arrives in my mailbox because every mail "@amigaclub" is redirected to me. _________________ - Proud Member Of The Belgian Amigaclub Since 2003 -
