It is never a smart idea to use Network Solutions Registrar's whois to check
domains registered at another registrar. Network Solutions Registrar has
problems keeping their own data correct, so why would they make sure the
information they are showing for another registrar's customers is correct?
If you want to see what is in the registry, use the registry whois at
nsiregistry.com or if you want to see what is in the registrar whois for a
domain, check the authoritive registrar whois, if you want information on a
OpenSRS registered domain, use the OpenSRS whois.
