    Hi, i recently ran a domain search on Networksolutions and they say my domain is available. So i turn to godaddy next to register the domain ( cheaper ) , and i was told that the domain name is taken. However it is still available in Networksolutions. Does it sounds fishy ?

    It can mean a couple of things:

    1. Network Solutions' systems doesn't update as quickly as Go Daddy's.

    2. Someone already registered the domain name at Go Daddy but hasn't been
    "caught on" yet by the .Com Registry (Verisign).

    3. The Verisign .Com Registry is not reporting accurate results.

    Nobody knows until probably 24 hours later.
