    Advise godaddy and ICANN and contact the REAL domain name owner if the domain names are stolen - the CRIMINALS should NOT get away with their EVIL

    hi,

    i’m the owner of yxl.com, and i lost my domain name yxl.com and 787 others after my computer got compromised.

    i contacted godaddy.com, was asked to send in my photo id and some other docs, after all that, i’m happy to report that i’ve got YXL.COM back.

    i have also managed to get my gmail accounts back as well which is a big relief.

    by the way, YXL.com is in sedo auction now, if you want it, bid for it there.

    my username at namepros.com is trendicator, and i have updated the original post there….

    thanks to all
