   | Problems registering a domain. I tried to register a name through Godaddy.com and it would not let me, but namecheap said it was available. So I was able to successfully buy it from them instead. Any ideas why this happened? |

       | Now that NameCheap has registered it, what was the name? Sometimes the whois registry is down and one registrar or another will report that a name is available when it isn't, or that a name isn't available when it really is. Or, some registrars allow certain types of registrations while others don't. Most recently, I couldn't register a 3 # .cc at one registrar, so I had to go elsewhere to do it. -Allan

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=190384 Was that a joke or something? I don't understand. Anyways, the problem probably was that someone added the domain at GD to their cart and it shows it's not available. | ||||

Apparently I was confused as to a joke/tongue in cheek, or else some other miscommunication. If stocks.org is your site, it redirects to rock.com , so I was wondering if you were related somehow... If you were speaking in reference to stocks.org having shown as available, but actually not having been, then I get it now If not, clarification would be great  -Allan
