Lucky you: you actually got a domain name. I've been trying to register a 
domain name with them for over two months. It took them so long that I sent 
them an email asking why I didn't get the domain name I wanted. Their response:

That was on October 18...   :(

After Gary posted this message, I checked the Namezero site again. It now 
says that their service is only available in a few countries, The 
Netherlands not being one of them.   :-(

There is a solution for that. A web search on "namezero html" will give you 
links to several websites that provide a solution (it's just a few lines of 
HTML-code you must insert in your home page).
