Re: Versign creates man-in-the-middle attack on DNS
Let's see ... you type in a URL that isn't working and you are immediately bound by a long list of conditions ... AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND. By using the service(s) provided by VeriSign under these Terms of Use, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions here in and documents incorporated by reference. Makes the RIAA look like Mother Teresa. Cheers, Scott ----- Original Message ----- From: "R. A.

I didn't get a Verisign page...I go the usual error.
"Could not open the page http://www.thisisjunk55666.com/ because the server www.thisisjunk55666.com could not be found."
Try http://www.thisisjunk55666.net - I think .com hasn't been switched or hasn't propagated yet.
Result is an ugly Verisign search engine page.
