    LOL, good info. Never new. I use them all the time. Any how I just typed in

    aksdkjfjhdikfjdjwsjnvndkwskskcks

    all extensions available. We'll see how fast they get taken. Except .co.uk was taken.

    Say what. What kind site is

    aksdkjfjhdikfjdjwsjnvndkwskskcks.co.uk

    That's way to long. Who would reg that.

    Not working for me. Not.com anyway.

    I typed in
    ilikenetworksolutions

    all were availabe. 1 minute later .co.uk and then 1 minute later .de. But .com not taken yet.

    Now it says .de is available and not taken. Their script is broken.

    It'll appear not taken unless you try other registrars. Also, just visit the page and you'll see their Network Solutions page there.

    Weird. It still shows available on their site. Just not anywhere else. So if this a scam. Then for future regs whic a good tool to lookup domains?

    yes.. they are difinitely doing this... i tried and they grabbed the domain 5 mins latter :)

    what a sick company and i heard godaddy was also doing it for a brief while before better sense prevailed... i am not sure about that news though.
