Z06vette.com no more

Just tried going to their site, and I get a message saying that the domain name is available. Anyone here know what's up with that?

Does anyone else care?

You've got their ip address cached. When your dns cache expires, most likely you won't be able to get there.

I know you do...so do I...that is why I asked if there was a problem, and apparently there is.

I was able to get on the site, but had to go via Zo6vette.com vs Z06vette.com....strange.

Just got on there fine. Others including admins, having some problems, and the talk is the site's been hacked.

Man that's strange for them to change to using the letter "o" as apposed to the number "0". Wonder what's up?

Yes, you're right. The sight can be accessed if you sub the letter "o" for the number "0".

Evidently this isn't right so somebody or something changed the domain name that links to their IP.

The owners probably "squatted" the name zo6Vette.com and had it redirect automagically.

I have tried every combination and cannot get on? It goes to some domain buying site? I agree with the other fellows this site has been hacked by spammers! What a bunch of ******!
