there are numerous drop catcher services, and this one is probably less effective than the ones run by registrars themselves. in particularly, if you know a domain is registered with a particular registrar, try using that registrar's drop catcher service and you will likely win. [i had a verisign registered domain expire, and tried to reclaim with godaddy's drop catcher service. it failed; another domain speculator got it from verisign directly and godaddy claimed they never saw the drop. i'm pretty sure this is not technically allowed but it seems common enough.] more drop catcher info than you ever wanted: http://dnjournal.com/columns/cover080504.htm _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
