I have the same convern. So as a follow up question; who is the best and
cheapest (in that order) domain registrar. I realize that this question
keeps getting asked and I apologize for that. Aside from GoDaddy, whom I do
not trust, who else is out there. In addition, I also have two domain names
with Webnames.ca--one .ca and one .com--that I would like to transfer to
someplace cheaper. Paying $50.00/year is a little steap I think.

Is there a website anywhere that I can go and read reviews of different
registrars? I know there is one for hosting companies.

Thanks,

Chris
