They may be using header translation at their webserver to direct http requests to your site on their server, not an uncommon practice in the hosting world.

For example, this is what my DNS record looks like now with my current web hosting company: <file://www.DOMAIN.com> www.DOMAIN.com. 86400 IN A 123.123.123.123 My new hosting company wants me to use this: <file://www.DOMAIN.com> www.DOMAIN.com. 86400 IN A client123456.myregisteredsite.com I assumed when I switched hosting companies that I would just get a new IP address, not a virtual address. They are telling me that they don't give out static addresses for web sites anymore. Is this the norm? Thx No virus found in this incoming message.
