Re: [ga] FYI: .KIDS and both .BIZs

[PacificRoot Hostmaster <idno@tallship.net>]

I was asked to put the download link for the plug-in near the top so
everyone wouldn't have to read the whole document, so here it is ;)

http://www.PacificRoot.com/updatedns.shtml 

(and select automatic upgrade, and either save to disk or install from
d/l - yes you can uninstall it too from control panel=>add/remove
programs). Yes it works with newnet domains too ;)

the best part is, it makes a great stocking stuffer for friends and family
around Christmas time.

Now you truly have two .BIZs :)

enjoy :)
