Domain Registrar
 

Guys,
I registered a domain name around a year ago, and I'm finally ready to use
it. The only problem is that I've forgotten which company I registered it
with. I need to know this to direct the name to my new webspace. Is there
any way of finding out which company this is?
A couple of points I've tried so far. I did a whois search which led me to a
website based in the US I'd never heard of. When I tried logging on, using a
user name and password I always use (I know, I know), it said that it
couldn't let me log on as the domain was registered using one of their
reseller accounts, but didn't say which one. So I need to know how to find
out which company's website I got to to change the domain.
It's a .co.uk domain.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Post the details of the US host here - someone might recognise the name and
know the UK agent.

And change your reply-to address - I'm guessing you might not be the owner
of home.com and all you;re doing is encouraging spam to someone else's
server, which isn't great.

The US host is called Network Solutions.
I've also changed my email address, thanks for the advice.

goto www.nic.uk and put in your domain.
