Errr no. What happened was it expired because Microsoft forgot to pay for it and it went NXDOMAIN. At the time anyone could go to Network Solutions' website and pay the annual fee for ANY domain via credit card. So some kind soul did just that, to reactivate it for Microsoft. From memory, they sent him a check and he framed it. _______________________________________________ domains-gen mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-gen
