True guys, but this is overkill. It is only because the gaining Registrar has the ungodly powers to TAKE your domains that this lock-down becomes a norm. This lock makes you own transfers difficult. The default is one-party consent where all it takes is for the gaining Registrat to "fall for the scam." Do anyone think that the scams are just going to stop happening??!!
Don't get me wrong here. Until the system is fixed -- and we have two- party consent -- locks are the best way to protect yourself from theft. But that forces two-party consent with hassle of a manual on-lock. My point is that we DESERVE -- did eveyone get that -- DESERVE two-party consent where a manual lock down is optional. Given that, if I were ebay.com I would lock it down as well! Best, Loren www.evil.biz! [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Let me say it again.

Locking prevents the domains from being transferred if the registrant falls for the scam...
