2 websites with the same URL?

When a domain name expires, the registrar usually changes the DNS entries from the customer’s entries to their own, from which they serve the parked pages. DNS updates take time to propagate across the entire an internet. Until the propagation completes, it’s quite possible for people to get different results from different locations. Also, if the entry is cached on the local computer, the original site could still be reachable until the local cache is refreshed.

Also, it is possible to intentionally have a domain name resolve to different IP addresses and therefore different websites, but that’s not what’s going on here.

Looking at the Whois info, it looks like the domain name might have expired and then been renewed. The tricky thing some registrars do is automatically switch to their parked page upon expiration, but the domain owner has to manually switch it back upon renewal. So, after renewal, it still points to the parked page until the site owner finally realizes the NS entries need changed.

Internet 101: Every rule has an 'except…"

Every computer on the internet has a unique IP address. (Except, if you are behind a firewall, that private network may have private IP addresses and they all use the one address that belongs to the firewall)

To get the address of a site from the name, your computer asks the DNS server. that may be a private DNS server behind the firewall, which will then ask a public server (your ISP,usually) which if it hasn’t already answered the query recently, asks the “root” DNS, which passes teh query to the DNS that can really answer that question. The name is transalted to an IP address.

So as mentioned, this is where one malware can get you - they either intercept or redirect your DNS to their own sites, or change the query so you get the answer they want to give you.

If you are getting the correct IP address from the DNS server system, then either the address has changed, or the computer at that address has been changed. As mentioned above, if the DNS / name registrar has not been paid to renew the rights to the name, they may have a standard site to redirect people to until they do get paid.

You can verify your DNS server IP Address by opening a DOS box
(Start - Run - “CMD” OK)
and typing the command
ipconfig /all

I see the correct Foundation website.

You guys were right. I contacted the guy who runs the site and he tracked down the problem. Something about their not having enough information registered or blah blah blah. Who knows. I love it when I can really say, “It’s not me, it’s you.” Thanks for all the help.
King, this case is closed.
