  1. How do you get all this information? Sure is interesting...

    Their website is crappy as hell though!

    Melbourme IT is the choice that Microsoft uses to register domains with their free Office Live web hosting service. Since MS is not a registrar, they have to use someone. Could have been GoDaddy. But in this case, Melbourne IT. They are also nothing more than an Domain Name vulture. They register names the second they can once their registration expires and then try to sell it back to original owner at inflated price for his laziness and stupidity for letting registration expire. (I was once lazy and stupid and it cost me over $200 to get control of my domain back.) Your reference to Australia means nothing.

    Now the link below has the more accurate registration for this domain. It traces back to the swamps of Jersey.

    I am also pending an offer from this firm. I am going to do my research from some contacts I have but I did have some red flags go off when I was in the interview. The whole process seemed accelerated and far too "boiler room" for my comfort.

    Just give it the old "duck" test. (or if you are a Cheech and Chong fan, the ole shit test)

  10. Just about all of retail fx is equivalent of boiler room.

    I mean, would you trade YHOO with a firm that quotes you say 26.25 x 26.50 during market hours and always takes the other side of your trade to boot?
