Doster now has autolocking on domains

[Jerms]

An e-mail got from them today. I honestly think after what happened to poor sleezy and many others that this should be manditory anyways. It seems to only make sense.

Subject: TransferLock added to your Dotster Domains - Domain Protection All headers

Dear Dotster Customer,

This is an important message regarding your Dotster Domains.

We recently included a story in our dotNews email explaining that
ICANN has introduced changes to their transfer policy, requiring
registrars to acknowledge all incoming domain transfer requests. In
response to this policy, and in order to protect you from unauthorized
transfers, we have implemented our free TransferLock service for all
.com and .net domains currently registered with us.

This change will help to prevent .com and .net domain names from being
transferred without your authorization. Domains protected by Dotster?s
free TransferLock service can only be transferred if the domain owner
logs into their account and unlocks them.

Dotster has experienced several cases where the registrar requesting
the transfer of a domain has attempted a transfer without the consent
of the domain owner. Enabling our TransferLock service for all of our
customers will help protect them against this type of activity.

TransferLock will only be applied to .com and .net domain names.

In order to remove the TransferLock feature from a domain you'll need
to:

- Log into your account
- Click the domain to manage
- Under the "Services For Domain" section - click the 'manage' button
next to "Domain Locking"
- On the "Domain Lockdown" page, click 'unlock'

To remove the TransferLock feature from multiple domians at once:

- Log into your account
- Click 'View a complete list of all domains in your account'
- Select the domains you would like to manage and click the 'Manage
Domains' button
- Under the "Registered Domain Functions" section, click the 'Unlock
Domains That Have TransferLock' button.

As always, thanks for trusting Dotster with your domains.
