I doubt I'm among the first 1,000,000 people to adjust junk pop-op or other defenses to treat sitefinder.verisign.com and 64.94.110.0/24 like any other noxious web site. If AOL and a lot of other outfits haven't adjusted their proxies within a few hours, I'll be surprised. If AOL and Microsoft don't immediately make releases of IE and Netscape that treat 64.94.110.11 the same as they treated an NXDOMAIN (and included an update mechanism), it will only be because Verisign has given up or they're gettting piece of Verisign's action.
