In short, you search for a site and within seconds, Network Solutions subsequently registers the domain for five days, preventing users from buying it anywhere other than Network Solutions. Places where, in many instances, you might be able to get a better deal should you want to shop around. Nice.

Don't search for domains through Network Solutions. Or wait the five days and buy elsewhere. Problem solved?

Old news.
Netsol sucks anyway, why are you even on their site anyway.
Fire up terminal, type whois domain.com all you need.

Ok, can't believed this is news. Happened to me twice. Looked up a name - it was available and then by the end of the week it was not. The last (idea for a) domian name was portionsize.com
