We used to use Veri$ign/NetworkSolutions as our Registar, but due to too many problems (changing freeforms/faxforms, parking domainnames for no reason, fscked up database[*], and so on) we are moving all our domains to Tucows/OpenSRS and BulkRegister (trust me, we are not the only hosting provider in NL who does this).
It also looks to me as if Veri$ign/NetworkSolution has made a pact with NameZero, since every domain which we host and has been registered through NameZero has become "parked" at NetworkSolutions. This can be very irritating for our customers (help! my domain doesn't work!), and the worst thing is that they never notify anyone about this (it's even worst because I get all these customers on the phone;(.
[*] A simple domaintransfer could take 3 months, only because Veri$ign/NetworkSolutions couldn't find the domain in it's database.
In my personal opinion: Don't do business with Ver$ign/NetworkSolutions.
