Oh, I bet I get it. Perhaps it had been registered with Registerfly and the domain was transferred over to GoDaddy (as all Registerfly domains are supposed to have been) and then GoDaddy took it down because it expired? Or the hosting service (seems to be WildWestDomains) took it down? Someone needs to tell these folks to pay GoDaddy Larry Seltzer eWEEK.com Security Center Editor http://security.eweek.com/ http://blogs.eweek.com/cheap_hack/ Contributing Editor, PC Magazine larryseltzer () ziffdavis com -----Original Message----- From: funsec-bounces () linuxbox org [mailto:funsec-bounces () linuxbox org] On Behalf Of Larry Seltzer Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 6:35 PM To: Paul Ferguson; funsec () linuxbox org Subject: RE: [funsec] Praying for Divine Intervention Against Registerfly
"Ticket sales for the Randy Travis concert to be held at the Castine
Center in Mandeville Sunday abruptly halted Wednesday when the ticketing portal at cornerstonecares.com was hijacked by a domain name registration company operating as Registerfly.com. What the hell can this mean? Here's the current whois for this domain: Whois Server Version 1.3 Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net for detailed information. Domain Name: CORNERSTONECARES.COM Registrar: GODADDY.COM, INC.

Bret Fausett: [snip] - From New Orleans' NOLA.com: "Ticket sales for the Randy Travis concert to be held at the Castine Center in Mandeville Sunday abruptly halted Wednesday when the ticketing portal at cornerstonecares.com was hijacked by a domain name registration company operating as Registerfly.com. Cornerstone Church pastor Doug Gilford said he is disheartened.... 'It is a travesty to have such a great opportunity as the Randy Travis concert thwarted by a company's total disregard for others. I am praying that God will show his might at this 11th hour for us,' Gilford said."
