All Scherr Technology Clients should avoid checking their domain name ideas on any Network Solutions website. It has been confirmed that once entered on their website, your domain is put on hold by the registrar and made available to third parties. In the future please only check domain availability at InterNIC’s website:

Network Solutions steals domain ideas; Confirmed!
January 8th, 2008 by Jay Westerdal

“I am confirming that Network Solutions steals domain ideas when people check domain availability on the Network Solutions website. They seem to have started the practice of stealing domain ideas on December 16th 2007 according to our Domain History database but I was just made aware of this practice today. I am appalled at the concept of taking people’s domain ideas and registering it before the consumer has the ability to manually register the domain.

It is a deplorable action that Network Solution would announce potential domain names to the entire world. If a customer chooses not to register the domain name with Network Solution they are forced to wait 4 days for Network Solutions to delete the domain name in the Free Add Grace period. After the four day hostage period the consumer is free from the hostage situation and can register the domain somewhere else. However Network Solutions has now exposed those domains to Domain Tasters that will snipe those domain up milliseconds after Network Solutions deletes them. By registering the domain Network Solutions is exposing the domain in the DNS and every computer in the world now knows about the domain. These domains are now easy fodder for scammers and it is mind blowing that Network Solutions would expose their customers queries to the world in this manner.”

New York, USA (November 23, 2007) FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Scherr Technology is proud to announce the creation and implementation of a new SPAM resistant web form for our client’s websites. Using a combination of Captcha and multi-part confirm, we have created a form that is virtually impervious to most spam bots or malicious hijacking attacks. We know nothing can stop all spam from coming through, but hopefully our continuing efforts will keep unintended usage of Scherr Technology / i2-Services online web forms to an absolute minimum.

What is Image Verification (Captcha)? A security test to determine whether or not the user is human. This will ensure that only human visitors will actually submit the form, and not spamming bots that are browsing the web from site to site and submit spam where they can. It is well known that programmers can do programs for many jobs, including visiting a large amount of sites on the Internet by following links from page to page and collect emails listed on websites, submit contact forms, or even trying to break passwords by trying to login over and over again with computer generated passwords. Fortunately, it is impossible for a non-human ( ex. computer program ) to extract a word or a combination of letters and numbers from an image, if the letters and numbers are not all of the same size and of similar font. This is why, the Image Verification security method ensures that only people actually can submit a form.

About i2-Services, Inc.

Looking for an advanced solution to manage and process HTML forms on your website? Form Manager is a do-it-all website tool for retrieving information entered by website visitors. Features include administrator back-end, single as well as multiple page forms, logging, customized emails sent to administrator and recipient, file uploading & more!
