    I am trying to register a domain and I want it to be www.demontfort.something I have been using various whois programs and they all say that www.demontfort.org is available and there is no record of it being registered. However, if I type this into a browser I get a page saying that it is "coming soon" how does that work??!

    Whois Server Version 1.3

    Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
    with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
    for detailed information.

    No match for "DEMONTFORT.ORG".

    >>> Last update of whois database: Fri, 12 Sep 2003 06:18:41 EDT <<<

    why do only some places see it then?? I thought the whole point was that all of these records are correct!
    oh and I think I will probably go for www.de-montfort.org instead

    They probably need updating.

    pir.org will always be up to date for .org domains.
