That's an interesting idea. Perhaps that is something that could be looked at in other namespaces -- high initial cost of registration (perhaps $200+) but extremely low renewal (perhap $5/year). This means that you have to have deep pockets in order to do the above abuses, but you're not going to be penalized for every year after. -kb -- Kris Benson ABC Communications +1 (250)612-5270 x204 +1 (888)235-1174 x204
