Additionally there is a problem where the InterNIC refuses to remove DNS
entries even when the DNS site requests it. For example:
# whois cyberpromo.com
Cyber Promotions, Inc (CYBERPROMO-DOM)
8001 Castor Avenue Suite #127
Philadelphia, PA 19152
US

# whois 205.199.2.0
AGIS/Net99 (NETBLK-NET99-BLK4)
3601 Pelham
Dearborn, MI 48124
Netname: NET99-BLK4
Netblock: 205.198.0.0 - 205.199.255.0
Maintainer: AGIS
# whois 207.120.46.0
New Mellenium Cafe (NETBLK-NEW-MEL) NEW-MEL 207.120.46.0 -
207.120.46.63
Both AGIS and New Millenium would glady have the entries dropped if they
could. Particularly since New Millenium is not able to use the
207.120.46.30 to date due to anti-spam attacks :-(
