    AULRO .COM .AU What The ....

    Hi
    by mistake I typed in www.aulro.com.au
    and got some page advertising all kinds of rubbish.

    I thought .com.au was reserved for busineses with that specific name?

    Anyhow Inc. I thought I'd bring this to your attention if you didn't already know. Maybe you should ask them for an un-sponsored link to your site?

    Anyone can register a .com.au domain name / address, doesn't matter if it's a business - individual or an organisation like a club or whatever, long as they pay the reg fees etc.,

    i know about it, some parasite is making a few bucks on click thruoughs... wouldnt be suprised if it was someone that is one here...

    you used to have to have a business name and the domain name had to be a consistent abreviation, but that has gone out the door...

    One day when I figure out how to make a website, I'll give aulro.com a free plug, but not the other one... that's a bit low...

    In the early days of the internet some lucky bloke called Fred McDonalds(or whatever - surname is the only important bit) registered www.mcdonalds.com. After a while the hamburger McDonalds realised a net presence would be good. He got paid big bucks to relinquish it!
