Interesting - It wasn't that Comcast was hacked but that Network
Solutions the company they use for Domain Registration was hacked and
someone changed their DNS server.   The same thing happened to our
primary domain about a month ago.

I think I'm going to suggest to my management that we think about moving
off Network Solutions.   At the time they gave us conflicting
information about what happened and only later admitted it wasn't us who
made the change.
