[money-raker]

hi there i bought the domain sitesizzler.com from someone on ebay but when i type it in i find i go to a website with my domain name how can this happen.

( i did not buy the website or have anything to do with it)

i wouldnt be to bad if i had the login details but i dont.

is there any chance i can get this removed from the net .

any help is much appreciated.

thanks very much

Did you change the nameservers?

As an interesting aside, I sold a site 2 plus yrs ago and my old website is still online with all my information and my affiliate programs, as the buyer never bothered to change the NS's even after his first year of renewing the name.

P.S. I even notified him about it on the phone some time ago but still nothing done by him.

i wouldnt be to bad if i had the login details but i dont.

Do you mean you cannot administer the domain - you have no access to the account with the Registrar?

hi thanks for the reply,

i have acces to the domain name at godaddy but not for the website itsefl so i could log in and change the design etc.

thanks

i have emailed him but not getting any reply.

thanks

Well just login to your godaddy account and change the nameservers to yours or you hosting provider etc and allow for the change to resolve - then the website will no longer come up when your domain is typed in.
