Are you running W2K or XP? If so, make sure
you have the "DNS Client" service disabled. We setup all machines with it
off by default now, because it has caused nothing but problems for us in the
past by caching bogus info.
Good luck!

I think this has something to do with Active Directory. I
have no clue as to where the lookup is coming from because it isn't
cached. It is most certainly happening though:

I
did a quick search and couldn't find any mention of this on
Google.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] VeriSteal is stealing traffic from your

My primary is my mail/Web server that is co-located
off-site running MS DNS without Active Directory. My secondary is my
LAN's Microsoft Active Directory bound DNS server. The unregistered
.com and .net misspellings are in my mail/Web server's cache, however
these invalid sub-domains don't show up in the cache of either
server.
It's strange behavior. I wonder where my computer is
getting this information. Maybe this is proof of why you shouldn't
wildcard from the root servers?

Very strange. I just confirmed that it happens from both Netscape and
IE on both local computers, but it doesn't happen on my mail/web
server. I think this has to do with the fact that I am on a local
network with Active Directory, which my mail/web server isn't using.
Anyone else behind an Active Directory server that can confirm?

I didn't realize this until a second ago, but VeriCorrupt is stealing
traffic from every domain name out there on the Internet, regardless of
the extension, and regardless of whether or not it is registered. Want
to see something else that's quite strange?

For some reason that brings you to VeriThief's SiteFinder?????? If you
take out the ".online" it will take you to the wildcarded MuseDoma
site. Seems that VeriSteal has some bleed over. Want to see something
even worse?
http://asdasdfasdfa.igaia.com
http://asdfasdfasdf.declude.com
Any lookup, registered or unregistered that doesn't return an A record
is being directed at this site. Why the hell are these guys stealing
traffic from the domain names that I am paying for? THIS MUST END! Up
until now, I only thought this was limited to unregistered domains.
VeriHijack can't be allowed to write the rules whatever way they see
fit. They quite literally just took over the backbone of the Internet.
