"Worst Spam Offenders" Notified by ICANN
In order to clarify the system for dealing with incorrect “Whois” domain name

the following information regarding its compliance work.
http://icann.org/announcements/announcement-23may08.htm

ICANN Recommendations Could Significantly Increase New Generic Top-Level Domain 
Names [reg req'd]
There was a time when companies only concerned themselves with the ".coms" and 
".nets" of the world as part of their trade-mark and domain name strategies. 
But now, with specialized generic top-level domain names (gTLDs) like ".travel" 
and ".pro," it may be time for companies to re-examine their domain name 
portfolios. Indeed, with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and 
Numbers (ICANN) moving forward with the potentially dramatic expansion of 
gTLDs, this re-examination may become more pressing.

CZ.NIC Launching the Project háckycárky.cz [news release]
Www.úradpráce.cz – this is what the Czech domains might look like in future. 
Such names would be enabled by implementation of the IDN (Internationalized 
Domain Name) system, which would facilitate working Internet domains containing 
characters from national alphabets. In addition to greater freedom in selecting 
address names, IDN brings several arguable issues. The CZ.NIC association, 
administrator of the .CZ top-level Internet domain, is therefore launching the 
website www.háckycárky.cz to provide information about IDN and support the 
discussion among the Czech Internet users on whether IDN should be implemented 
in the Czech Internet or not.

.DK burning
The other night I was trying to access the website of the Danish Registry 
Operator DK-Hostmaster, but strangely the request was timing out all the time 
and the website appeared unaccessible. “Weird!”, I thought, not exactly the 
type of behaviour one would expect from this type of institutional sites. Then 
yesterday morning I found an explanation to the strange events of the night 
before: Computerworld.dk was in fact reporting about a small fire that affected 
Interxion’s datacenter in the outskirts of Copenhagen, and which caused some 
downtime to the servers of a large number of big Danish companies hosted there.

Battling Botnets and Online Mobs: Estonia’s Defense Efforts during the Internet 
War by Gadi Evron
What would happen if tomorrow the Internet ceased to function? To most critics, 
and particularly state officials and policy makers, the possibility that the 
Internet could one day suddenly disappear is no more than a mere speculation, a 
highly improbable concept. On May 2007, the events that took place in Tallinn, 
the capital of Estonia, proved everyone wrong. On that day, Estonia fell victim 
to the first-ever, real Internet war.

Holiday spirit helped double Storm worm
Storm kicked off its holiday spam-and-malware campaign on the day before 
Christmas, sending off a flurry of e-mail that invited victims to visit a 
Christmas-themed strip show on Web sites such as Merrychristmasdude.com. 
Victims who downloaded the strip show found their PCs attacked by malicious 
software. This site, and about 14 other Storm-related domains, was registered 
using a Russian domain name registrar called Nic.ru, where staff was largely 
unavailable during the holidays, according to Richard Cox, the chief 
information officer with the Spamhaus anti-spam effort.

mobile companies buy IPv6 addresses to keep up with the expansion of mobile

Uprooting of the DNS Root By Danny McPherson
The folks at Renesys pointed out earlier this week some interesting activity 
surrounding the L-root name server, highlighting some activity that should give 
us all yet another reason to be concerned about the security and integrity of 
the Internet DNS... considering that a great deal of malware today tends to 
corrupt the DNS resolution path in order to further exploit compromised 
end-systems, and that corruption, or any other actual end-system compromise, 
might well be unnecessary if the root were compromised -- well, think of the 
possibilities!

branding. A strong brand can make the difference between commercial success and 
failure, particularly for Westcountry businesses with all the geographical 
challenges and opportunities we face.Most successful brands comprise a variety 
of assets, including business name, products and services, intellectual 
property rights such as trademarks, copyright, personnel and internet presence, 
including domain names.
