Don't know, but I cannot get to the VSGN wildcard site. DNS is still returning the IP, but port 80
is not responding or is very slow. Bet they didn't allocate enough servers to this  (hehehehe) or 
its being DOS'ed.

Has Microsoft responded to this yet? Seems like Verisign's scam is
running over Microsoft's scam.
