VeriSign Shutting Down Site Finder 234
00420 writes "VeriSign, the administrator of the .com and .net domains, made plans to shut down its new Site Finder service Friday, after the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ordered the company to undo controversial changes. Of course they're not taking it down because it affected the internet, they're just doing it to keep good relations with the technical community. (Seems a little late for that doesn't it?)" The shutdown is not complete yet, though: VeriSign hasn't changed their wildcard DNS entry (64.94.110.11).

Going with the Star Wars theme, aren't you supposed to say, "I have a bad feeling about this?"

My friend read your reply, and said, "Don't worry, Lando will blow it up and save us all."
To which I replied, "Lando is a fictional character who doesn't exist."
He got a very hurt, very serious look on his face and replied in a very shakey voice, "Lando WILL save us all!"
I made my exit from the computer lab shortly after for fear he would go wookie on me and rip my arms off.
