NO!! it's not the same usual MAIL-FROM security hole.

In fact what the guy did was switch web.net to OpenSRS
and then changed the Registrant. There needs to be a
CENTRAL database of Registrants pronto! My greatest
fears seem to be coming true just as I sadly expected :-(

For people not familiar with OpenSRS...they allow their
customers to change ANY field including that of the
Registrant (owner) without any paperwork or anything.
To be fair, some other Registrars allow the same thing,
but this should not be...domain names are very valuable
and to allow such critical changes to be made without
oversight is dangerous and downright irresponsible!!

CCed to comments@icann.org since ICANN is very
much to blame for allowing this to happen...hopefully
ICANN fixes the web.net domain mess soon for this guy.
