You guys just don't have the slightest clue what's going on, do you?

HE has arrived.

Everyone was warned.
The signs are everywhere.

Is that a compliment. Huh? Cheesy

But the links within FGI aren't indexed by IP address.  At least, they don't work for me -- clicking on anything just gets me that DirectNIC page.

They're called absolute HREFs.  For example, instead of sending a link to "/forms/clubhouse.html" they're sending them to "http://freegolfinfo.com/forums/clubhouse.html".  The former would work on an IP URL but the latter always wants to go back to the hostname - which of course is unavailable to most.   

Aske's hosts file trick should make it work for those in dire need of FGI today.

CW, while this is a relevant question it also might not be the reason they can see the site.

Most DNS servers around the internet act in a caching capacity.  The servers which are authoritative for a domain hold the actual data and they serve it to other DNS servers which ask for it.  There's an attribute associated with each host/record which tells the client server how long it should cache those values. 

So in the FGI scenario it's possible that the Minnesota twins' ISP asked for the data just before the root servers stopped pointing to FGI's nameservers.  If the TTL is 24 hours the ISP would serve up the correct address for that amount of time.  Once the deadline is reached those servers would attempt to refresh the cached records.  This time, the root servers would direct the request to NS0.EXPIREDDOMAINSERVICES.COM and NS2.EXPIREDDOMAINSERVICES.COM and the DirectNIC page would be displayed.

Hope this helps.
