Er, a quick look suggests that the links are to the over-seeing bodies over the different national domain registration processes, rather than general registrars for buying domains for each ccTLD. So a great reference piece, but does it have any real use outside of curiosity value?2c.

@ibrian Good point however it was tough to "single out" a specific ccTLD domain registrar and give them my "thumbs up."   This give anyone the resource to find a specific provider and go from there.  Thanks for the comment.

@ibrianWe actually provide over 140 extensions at e3internet, which gives us one of the largest portfolios available. I have another 10 to add shortly as I’ve been organising connections with several East European Registries. http://www.e3internet.com/shop/check.phpI’m happy to give any fellow Sphinners a discount code, just send me a PM through here or Twitter.It does help to go through a Registrar rather than the Registry in some cases, as the sites/support are in another language and you may need guidence on specific regulations. For example, a RU domain registered for an individual requires a passport number but as a company, this is not needed.

@agreen Hey Adam, FF (3.0B5) is listing your site as an "attack site" and blocking it atm? Google’s showing the warnings too.

@Nick - we had an issue with our host, they had a virus attack on their box... we’ve since moved.  It is fixed but Google hasn’t removed the warning even though we have submitted a request through Webmaster Central

@agreenI’ve heard it’s also sensible to submit a re-check request direct to StopBadWare.orghttp://www.stopbadware.org/http://www.stopbadware.org/home/reviewinfoHTH
