It looks like RegisterFly is trying to get back on their feet. The RegisterFly.com domain and all emails now take you to RegFly.com - with the ICANN termination notice removed.
If you notice, the footer now says "A service of Retail Web Group.", linking to http://www.retailweb.us/. What I find funny is that its registered by Robert O'Neill (regfly ceo) at GoDaddy....Not Registerfly! Plus his email contact is an "@hostflex.com" address - could this be another one of Regflys many spin off services?
I noticed the RegFly domain appear on an email from them a few days ago with their special offers.
If it is in fact under new management then they are going to have a hell of a job getting their reputation sorted out.
Watch this space!
Edit:
Just spoken to Robert O'Neill who apparently bought RegFly from Kevin in mid 2007:

You are now chatting with bob.
bob: hello how can i help you
ME: Hi, why has your company registerfly rebranded to regfly?
bob: did not know we where not allowed to rebrand
ME: I was just wondering what the reason was for the rebranding, is it to avoid having to keep the ICANN termination notice or something else?
bob: well the company was sold in aug of 07
bob: so its not the same owners
bob: or mngt
bob: the new owners will be moveing all services over to regfly.com
bob: as well as a new site design
bob: and more tools
bob: i belive the process has already started
bob: the icann termination notice has nothing to do with us any more
ME: Sold to who? Robert O'Neill (CEO) was in the picture before the sale, and is still the CEO of RegisterFly...I know Kevin is now gone, and hope you guys can get the place back. However people (including myself) still have funds in their accounts that cant be used....I cant do anything in my account as its all broken.
