Hi,
I have no domains in .ch, but the mystery is solved:
http://www.pctip.ch/topthema/tt/21206.asp
(This is German)
There are (German) discussions on
http://www.symlink.ch/articles/02/05/29/2233228.shtml
and, obviously, on the heise-newsticker forum:
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/foren/go.shtml?list=1&forum_id=29856
In short, Microsoft was using its priviledged access to the Swiss NIC
domains-database to produce a statistic of webserver operating-systems
under the cc-tlds .ch and .li.
Their access to this database however, has been terminated, a spokesperson
claiming "violation of AUP" by MSFT....
I guess, they clicked through the EULAs as fast as the average person ;-)
cheers,
Rainer
