It makes me wish I had money lying around to hire a lawyer just to piss off Verisign. I already have a MAJOR bone to pick with Verisign (have for several years) and this infuriates me even more. If I can find an avenue to complain, I will. Is there some organization that is over Verisign that I could file a complaint with? -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
