Not really related to the problem at hand, but OP weirdness the same. If you have a disjointed namespace in your forest, and the domain names are the same except for the extensions, the OP doesn't indicate which one you are pointing at.
IE MyCompany.net is the forest name MyCompany.com is a sub domain name OP will display them as MyCompany and MyCompany dropping off the extension. It's not really a big issue since in my case the .NET domain is an empty root, and really has no reason to be managing objects in there, but just an oddity.
