I don't think that could be right either Heat - .US with more than DOUBLE the .COM registrations??! Unless some major corporation moved in yesterday and started regging every .US name in site (over 50,000 shown there) that couldn't happen. Also notice all the zeroes in the active column. Has to be just a glitch.

The 50,000 new .US names are the registry reserved ones. They just got put in the zone files.

You can get a list of all of them at http://www.dailychanges.com/detail/?ns=CX9-RESERVED.US&date=2002-11-22&net=52041&act=n
