No, I don't think anyone hacked the .com site.
They didn't say that, either.
They seem to claim, however, that the .net site
is not theirs. I'm not saying that I know/believe
that claim is true, but that's what I was told.
Given that the original pdrexchange folks forgot
to reserve www.pdrexchange.de, it isn't out of the
realm of possibility to believe that
www.fairchildholdings.com forgot to reserve the
.net equivalent - or let it 'get away' from them
somehow.
