Okay, squatters, nice to know, Larry.
When you go to the original sites, it says someone is willing to sell
this domain name.
You're probably right, the hosting site could have done it.
Have you done a whois on the domain name?
What was the old domain?
One thing, though, even with .org and .com changes, all my old files are
still there, so just moving them over.
Don't even need to move the files, just update DNS so the new domain
name points to them.
What a relief!!!

Domain name scammers!
Actually, the term is squatters. It's often the registrars themselves
that do it, because it doesn't cost them any money.
For historical reasons (the name of my first xenix box was limited to 7
characters), when my email went from a bang path
ucscc.ucsc.edu!red4est!lrc, to domains red4est.felton.ca.us, I then
registered red4est.com rather than redforest.com. By the time the web
became popular enough, someone else had registered redforest.com and
when it lapsed a squatter had taken it.
