Interesting,

Which security check did YOU run?

I have never seen this - but then again, I do not use the DNS provided 
by STN, as I have my own "internal" DNS server that services my internal 
network - and referrs any external DNS questions out to my provider's 
DNS or wherever....

This implies that the STN DNS server is visable to the outside world?  
Odd, damned odd.  I would not have thought so - as it has no need to be 
visable outside....
