I hate to say this, But I think that Network Operators have not see the last of of this DNS Hijacking. Craigslist might have been a test to see how far they could get and how long it would take for it to be discovered. I hope the FBI and the other Federal agencies out there are involved with Craigslist to determine how this happened and put in safeguards in place to help prevent this from happening again.

     Well,

     NetSol?

     Is it just me or they came up a few times lately (past year) in high
profil case of DNS Hijacking?

Someone was kind enough to break into one of my domains at Register.com
-- and to their credit Register.com detected the intrusion and reported
it to me so I could go fix the problem.  Perp added DNS records to my
zone file, which I deleted, and reported the incident to the owner of
the IP address.

Yes, I changed the passwords.
