Just wanted to let the person with the Earthlink DNS issue know that apparently 
they set up some servers not doing the redirection:

http://blogs.earthlink.net/2006/09/more_info_on_dead_domain_handl.php

"As Dave mentioned last week, we've been working to tune the configuration of 
dead domain handling to address the issues some EarthLink customers have been 
experiencing during the rollout. We've been able to mitigate a number of 
issues, but we've also recognized that some of them such as certain problems 
with VPN access are not easily addressed through configuration changes in our 
dead domain system. For customers who are still experiencing issues, we've set 
aside a pair of servers that will remain outside of our standard DNS system. If 
you have a need to stay clear of our dead domain handling, just point your DNS 
servers to:

207.69.188.171 (west coast)

207.69.188.172 (east coast)

If you're west of the Mississippi, use the west coast DNS server as your 
primary and the east coast as secondary. And vice-versa for those of you in the 
eastern U.S.

This is a self-service solution, and it creates a mechanism for those users who 
choose to opt out to do so. These servers have been set aside to resolve 
problems you may be having, but this isn't something that you'll be able to get 
customer support help with."

Also, my appologies for some apparent format issues (and the sig problem) using 
excite on the list.  I will likely switch email accounts.
