Have you responded to any emails that from godaddy, for instance?

It would be interesting to see how godaddys login responds to brute force attacks. Do they force a 24 hour wait after 3 false entries, or do they just passively accept hundreds or thousands of login attempts? Anybody know?

I have heard it speculated that godaddys internal security has allowed hackers to steal id/passes in bulk. No evidence, just speculation, based on the frequency of thefts from godaddy.
Bill I have not even logged into godaddy for a few mos so I am not sure how he got in. Although according to some ICQ conversations this "Mark Anderson" has been used before for other domain hijackings and such as well so I am doing what I can to track the guy down. I use firewalls etc and up until a couple weeks ago I was even on dialup and satellite which there is no way the guy could have gotten into because the ip changed on my end every time I logged on just about.
