Re: Yahoo Hacked?

The whois server has a really loose pattern matching engine. This is
actually a host record for:
JIMPHILLIPS.ORG
ACIDULOUS.COM
CANADIAN.ORG
COM.BR
SHEEPSTER.COM
SAFESEARCH.COM
The last one is what you are looking for - yahoo.com
This is becoming more and more common. Look at microsoft.com, apple.com, etc.

with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net

To single out one record, look it up with "xxx", where xxx is one of the
of the records displayed above. If the records are the same, look them
up
with "=xxx" to receive a full display for each record.

The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .ORG, .EDU domains and
Registrars.
