For those that need further verification that Netrider is the legal 
leasee of netrider.org.au ....

Both point to the same website/IP.


A whois of netrider.com.au and netrider.net.au will show that 
Netrider.org.au (ABN 20 358 868 741) is the registrant for both these 
domains, as it was on netrider.org.au prior to this afternoon.

This highlights the malicious nature of the contact name on 
netrider.org.au or NetRegistry changing the domain record since 16:46 
this afternoon with a new registrant.

Having the IP address for www.netrider.com.au pointing to the Netrider 
webserver further highlights that Netrider is the true legal leasee and 
the change on the netrider.org.au domain record this afternoon was 
malicious.

NetRegistry would be aware of this malicious domain record change this 
afternoon, but are obviously turning a blind eye to it. A comspiracy 
theorist coudl argue that they are actively involved in the malicious 
change? Especially since they were notified this afternoon of the issue 
around the domain.
