July 13, 2011 netSol

Unlock domains at Network Solutions Acquire transfer release key Initiate transfer at new registrar Enter key Enter matching pair NetSol then denies transfer because of ‘suspicious activity’ (me unlocking the domains).. SERIOUSLY what the shit is the point of having these interfaces online if you’re just going to demand that I call you to prove that this was legit?
