For the record re: this issue - I am already discussing this with NeuLevel
in hopes that it will be ironed out very soon.  In the meantime, if anyone
has any similar experiences, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] offline with
the list of domains that are affected.  ST - please provide me with the list

Subject: Big trouble with .BIZ (maybe)


I posted a message last week about my personal .biz domains showing the
wrong contact info in the WhoIs. Well, I just checked the WhoIs on all
178 domains that were successfully registered through my account. A
total of 18 domains had the wrong contact info, belonging to 7 different
customers (including me). In all cases, if one domain name has the wrong
info, all of that customers names have the same wrong info. However, in
each case, the DNS info is correct. I've checked the original orders in
the RWI, and the contact info is correct.

Wait! It gets worse. Here's the really scary thing. Some of the contact
info that is there leads me to think that these names were not unique.
For instance, one of the domains that has the wrong contact info is a
real estate related domain. The WhoIs info shows the domain registered
to a woman in Canada. I went to the domain that her email was based on,
and it was a service that specializes in making websites for real estate
firms and marketing them. So it would make sense that this person had
actually applied for that same domain as my customer.

In another case, the domain deals with email lists, I think. Once again,
I went to the domain that the admin contacts e-mail is based on, and
it's a cheesy internet marketing webpage.

Hopefully it's just a coincidence, and it's just a matter of NeuLevel
straightening out their WhoIs.
