Isn't netsol now updating the com/zone nameservers in "real time" (5-minutely
intervals or some such)?  WHOIS is presumably still only updating twice
per day.  If so, then this phisher registered the domain just hours to
minutes ago.  FWIW "sedgq.com" has a SOA sequence of 2004102301 ("today").

just wondering about the following:

there is no whois-info for sedgq.com
(response: No match for "SEDGQ.COM".)

but, host sedgq.com
sedgq.com has address 66.218.79.155
sedgq.com has address 66.218.79.147
sedgq.com has address 66.218.79.148
sedgq.com has address 66.218.79.149

how can this be?
i mean, afaik a domein needs to be registred before its 'known'

this because of an email i received like:
