Quote - I had to dig a little further though, and went to find the host server in Moscow by the name of www.agava.ru and/or www.agava.com

Correct me if i am wrong

On the right, it says: Бесплатный домен: which must be something like if some domain name is available, so i put in artfile.ru

It gave me the following info:

domain: ARTFILE.RU
type: CORPORATE
nserver: ns1.agava.net.ru.
nserver: ns2.agava.net.ru.
state: REGISTERED, DELEGATED

phone: +38 050 9814481
fax-no: +38 050 9814481

So hope it will help y'all

Good day

Hi Harmen Indeed, thats exactly the info I came up with my last night ( am in germany). Interestingly the phone and fax numbers seem to point to Ukraine, not Russia, but that must not mean much since the format would suggest that they are outdated by long (+38 was the intl access for ex yougoslavia, this has been changed since some time. +380 is Ukraine today, +38 doesnt exist anymore at all, my suspicion is that its mean to read: +380 50 ....). To those who are afraid to write them: get a throwaway email address that you can access via web, not your email program. I doubt that you will get much replies anyway ;-) Y'all can additionally complain at ripe of course. cheers, Valerie
