There should be working e-mail addresses in the Admin, Technical, and Billing information in their ``whois'' database. Network Solutions seems to sell their whois database to every marketing sleaze on the planet. Register.com appears to be the registrar for far too many spamhauses, and their abuse people have never made any constructive response to complaints about spam advertising sites where they're the registrar. They don't seem to do any checking on the contact information they publish in their ``whois'' data so the spammer's contact info is frequently totally bogus. >Joel > >> >mailbank.com).
