123 reg faces XSS problems

[Promote your blog for free....]

It seems that 123-reg has serious issues with their customer support and with their site in general.

Today I read at blogstorm that they use parked pages for many domains without the user wants them, and their parking page can be changed using a simple XSS technique which let spammers add their links to the page.

I guess this is not a company to cooperate with....

I'm happy that I never heard from them before

They are my domain registrars though luckily I don't use their parking service.
Shame they have the best dns access going, i.e direct access to your records to change as you wish and text spf records etc even access via ssh.

It wil be highly embarrassing for them to explain as they are part of a much larger company called pipex which Olaf you might have heard of? and so not only provide services under their own name but that of pipex so potentially this problem could effect webfusion and pipex customers to

Pipex? I know Godaddy

lol Pipex is the third largest internet provider in Europe though it goes by loads of various names, its also the second largest host after 1&1.

I guess they have more business in UK (or is it GB?)

btw. I know 1&1 very well

Thanks for the information about Pipex...
