>My understanding about url hyjacks is that they are due to the methods used by Network Associates (internic) to change information associated with domain names. Network Associates uses email forms to change information about a domain name. These forms are very insecure and can be faked rather easily. If you don't go through Network Assocaites (they used to be the only way) then I think you are safe from url hyjacks. I always use register.com to register domain names. They have a really nice web based form for change information associated with domain names like the ip record and the mx record and so on. If you already register your domain with Network Associates you can switch the registar to register.com. They have info about this on their site.

I take your point but see also my reply to Erik, I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing although they are obviously associated.
