<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The article cites ICANN......</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>The owner of the site claims that the seizure occurred
suddenly and without warning: "My domain has been seized without any
previous complaint or notice from any court! I firstly had DNS downtime.
While I was contacting GoDaddy I noticed the DNS had changed. Godaddy had
no idea what was going on and until now they do not understand the situation
and they say it was totally from ICANN."</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I doubt ICANN were involved but if anyone
knows otherwise I would be interested to know - this would have an impact
on some of the RAP WG recommendations being taken forward.</font>
