Got my hijacked domain back. Wanted to thank DirectNic for their help. - GoFuckYourself.com

DarkJedi · 02-15-2005, 12:29 PM

As some of you may know, I had a domain hijacked from me about 2 weeks ago. Some bastards used a spyware/keylogger to steal my directnic login info. They then changed accounts email address and transferred the domain.

Speacial thanks go to Donny Simonton, DirectNic's technical manager. He was extremely helpful in resolving this situation.

Enom.com (the registrar where my domain had been transferred) was also very cooperative. Big thanks to Joanne Tucker, transfers manager.

My advice: have a good anti-spyware software running at all times on your pc.

Good for you Dork chops...

paxton · 02-15-2005, 12:32 PM

That's great news. It is very nice to know these registrars worked together to help out and resolve the situation.

Cheers to you for getting your domain back.

must've been a good domain.

DarkJedi · 02-15-2005, 12:33 PM

Yeah, I was surprised how cooperative enom.com really was.

WiredGuy · 02-15-2005, 12:34 PM

Glad to hear you got it back.

Now it's time to switch to a Mac. No spyware! (for now)

FunForOne · 02-15-2005, 12:35 PM

No idea.

SmokeyTheBear traced it to Kosovo hack group.

DirectNic and Enom are both Top Notch

Donny has helped me more times than I could count.

You can't go wrong with either of those registrars.

some good news!

Hijacking a domain with a tojan/keylogger is very different than defacing a page with a web application exploit.

Trax · 02-15-2005, 01:30 PM

great news... I know who I will contact when one of my domains will get stolen ;)

BRISK · 02-15-2005, 01:32 PM

What is some good anti-spyware software?

DutchTeenCash · 02-15-2005, 02:03 PM

directnic rocks

Credde · 02-15-2005, 02:11 PM

I tried the same two years ago, where I had some of my domains hi-jacked. It was also with Directnic, who as in your problem, was very helpful.

tungsten · 02-15-2005, 02:14 PM

directnic is definitely worth the $15

I currently use Microsoft Anti Spyware.

Like it a lot. It automatically downloads fixes for new exploits.
