Martin Brown's "Namesco MFU ..." thread prompted me to check my old
domain:
soft255.demon.co.uk (in Firefox) - eventually says "has timed out". Not
"cannot be resolved", note. When pinged, still resolves to the IP
address I was given all those years ago. (Doesn't respond to the pings -
same as it has always been.)
Adding the www:
www.soft255.demon.co.uk: ping resolves to
85.233.160.129, and responds (12 ms). In Firefox (27), gives a blank
page - but one that contains code, see below.
I thought *.d.c.u was supposed to be unresolvable by now (with or
without the www.)?
Looking at the www version in up-to-date Chrome brings up the "Don’t
let this space go to waste
Make
soft255.demon.co.uk work hard for you" Namesco advert.
When I do "View Page Source" on the apparently-blank page in Firefox 27,
this is what's there:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>
soft255.demon.co.uk</title>
<style type="text/css">
body, html
{
margin: 0; padding: 0; height: 100%; overflow: hidden;
}
#content
{
position:absolute; left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; top:
0px;
}
</style>
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<iframe width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0"
src="

</div>
</body>
</html>
