                      | Here's the The Lowdown
                from   DNJournal.com! Updated daily to
                fill you in on the latest buzz going around the domain name
            industry! Compiled

                      | Warning
                        to Network Solutions customers! Emails we
                        have received from readers as well as posts at the DomainState.com
                        forum report that if you search to see if a domain name
                        is  |  
                      | available at NetworkSolutions.com
                        they immediately register it themselves if it is
                        available and will charge you $35  if you still
                        want to get the
                        domain you looked up! Unbelievable but apparently true
                        from all of the  | 
 |  
                      |  reports we are seeing. Since
                        they  instantly take the name you will not be able
                        to go anywhere else to register it and will be stuck paying
                        NetSol more than triple the amount many other
                        popular registrars charge. In our opinion this is blatantly
                        unethical behavior on Network Solutions' part and we
                        would guess they will be forced to reverse course as a
                        firestorm of protest and negative publicity is bound to
                        result from this abuse of their customer's trust.(Posted
