Thanks to everyone who has given advice and helped us develop a timeline of the incident. I'm not part of the network and asset management: I'm a mere editor of the website.

The current registrar has contacted me. They've locked the domain and we need to submit some paperwork. It shouldn't be that big of a deal even though it's annoying. All of this was handled quickly (12 hours) because of the attention to the internet in general.

That's great news, Brian. The key here is that it was handled quickly. The longer it goes on unnoticed, the more difficult it becomes to unravel, as a domain gets transferred from registrar to registrar and from owner to owner.

I can confirm that Neurologist dot com and Chip dot com were also stolen at the same time. There may be others.
