I have a dated receipt from Network Solutions. I posted this because
perhaps not everyone is aware of this vulnerability.

Perhaps not. If you register a domain name, though, you should be.

inveis.com is a registrar for China. They're telling you that someone is
trying for your domain with a .cn extension. Are you worried about that?

There was no mention of the .cn top domain. Read it. Just the
subdomain customsensorsolutions

There was no mention of any extension because inveis.com didn't think telling you that someone was trying to register customsensorsolutions.cn or customsensorsolutions.tw or customsensorsolutions.hk would rattle your cage any.

If you go to their site <http://www.inveis.com/BUSINESSRANGE.ASP>, you'll see that they register .cn, .tw and .hk domains.

And if you pop their name into the Google search engine, you'll find that they've been spamming this stuff to all sorts of souls.

All I had to do was confirm with NS that my registration was secure,
and no worries.

My HUGE worry is that someone has registered towse.cn and I CAN'T READ WHAT'S THERE! Oh, noze!
