Yeah, it's totally fucked up, and other registrars seem to sell their search lists to cybersquatters who may register the domains you look for on the fly.

Once happened to me with a mainstream project, once the .com was registered for it, plus some country specific ones, I went to grab the .net and .org, ....net was suddenly already taken. Fortunately, we had a trademark and got the domain back after 2 weeks without any major problems...but it's SCARY !
