I just noticed something strange: if you do a whois at Networksolutions on a domain registered through Dotster, on the whois results page, a big Network Solutions "Register Now" yellow box appears like the domain is still available.[nbsp][nbsp](if you click it, it says that the domain is not available). It seems a little strange though.

For example:
http://www.networksolutions.com/cgi-bin/whois/whois?STRING=boatdesign.org

Oops.[nbsp][nbsp]I checked a while back and that "register now" box did not appear for one of my domains registered through Joker, but now it is there as well.[nbsp][nbsp]So it looks like Network Solutions adds that "register this domain now" box to any domains not registered through them.[nbsp][nbsp]No big deal I suppose. I just don't like having a "for-sale" sign on my domain.
