IDN domains

Internationalized Domain Names, or IDNs, are web addresses in your own language. Until now, browsers and email clients did not support the use of IDNs. There are some internet browsers that support this.

Camino for MacOS X (nightly, not 0.7)
Firefox 0.8 or later
Mozilla 1.4 or later
Netscape 7.1 or later
Opera 7.22 or later
Safari 1.2 or later for MacOS X

If you use another browser (f.ex Microsoft Internet Explorer) you probably need to install this patch to use these types of domains http://www.idnnow.com/index.jsp?lang=en.

Moving a domain AWAY FROM Active 24

There are 3 main things you have to make sure is ok, before moving your domain from Active 24.

This you can see in the WHOIS information on the domain. Most types of domains have a status. The most common statuses are:

Many providers send an email to the email address listed in your WHOIS information, to confirm that you are the owner. If the email address on your domain is not updated, you might get problems moving the domain. You can order a change of WHOIOS information here >>

Does my domain require an authorisation code or TAG change?

The different types of domains have different regulations so the procedures for moving them, can also be a bit different.
