    You need to contact :
    Sponsoring Registrar:Wild West Domains, Inc. (R120-LROR)
    It looks like its registered to you
    so hopefully easily sorted.

    Here's something to try. Go to 123cheapdomains.com. Do a WHOIS on both sites so you have all the info available. You need to know what is the owner or admin email and if you still have access to it.

    If you do, then you can follow the steps to transfer the domains. If you for some reason cannot access the owner or admin emails then contact 123cheapdomains.com and tell them your story. The customer service there is excellent, the control panel is easy-peasy and they will tell you what you need to do. I have wrested a domain from Melbourne IT on behalf of a client via 124cheapdomains.com before too.

    Is this your email?
    If so you could register with any domain registrar and put in a transfer request through them to move the domain to your new account, an email would be sent to so you can confirm the transfer, thus giving you control over the domain. Thats if .org works the same as .com

    AFAIK, if the domain has a status of REGISTER_LOCK, the authorisation email will never get sent to the admin contact, and the transfer request is dismissed. You need to unlock the domains first.
