What was this DOTSTER thing???!!!!
 

For the last 3-4 days, I have been trying to post on the forums and EVERY STINKING time I clicked on the "Msg Forums" link, it took me straight here ---> Dotster.com http://www.minorannoyance.net/~spin/...wm/cwm/sd3.gif I even tried typing in http://forums.mustangworks.com and it would take me straight to Dotster.com............ I'm sooo pissed!!! Not at any of you guys, just at circumstance.... CRAP!! I missed 3-4 days of talking to my online buddies........ :mad:

Does MW have business with this stupid Dotster place??? I never wanted to resort to popup killers, but this seemed like a popup from infierno. I was just about to write a letter to MW via email, but now the link seems to work...

*alright, calm down Fox* Okay, I'm calm again. I hope that doesn't happen again.... Take care.


.....just letting you know............

Dotster is a Domain registrar company, just like Network Solutions. I have all my domains registered through them for two reasons. 1] They are much cheaper, only charging $15 per year per domain versus $30 a year with Network Solutions. 2] They offer DNS services for a small additional fee per year per domain, which let's you control all your own DNS. This is a great capability when you operate your own dedicated servers and also gets around hosting companies that want to nail you with high extra charges for setting up domains, conicals, and tack onto your montly rates.

Unfortunately, Dotster had some kind of DNS server problems last week and serveral of our domains suddenly started resolving to their stupid "future home of a registered domain" page. I had to Email them with an urgent request to solve the problem. They did, but it took serveral days for some people's ISP's DNS servers to refresh their cache of the incorrect IP address information.

Hmmm. Okay. Well, everything seems to be back to normal. This place is a drug, man, I gotta have my daily dose....

Hey, thanks for such a complete reply, Dan.

Later.
