Just had an interesting side effect of the "V" hijack...

Went to register.com to register a new DNS server for someone, and when it
normally asks for the IP address (new server, new domain), it didn't because
when it did a query, it got a response for that name.  Now, it is reporting
the new DNS server as resolving to Verisign's IP address.

I think register has got some tweaking to do on their web scripts to ignore
wildcard responses...

But, shows another side effect of "V's" unilateral action.
