IPL
ICANN is IPL aware of the recent publicity regarding the vulnerability of certain web browsers to URI and domain name spoofing that relies on the use of Internationalised Domain Name (IDN) resolution.
Homograph domain name spoofing works by exploiting the visual resemblance, or near resemblance of certain characters and symbols. These can be characters in the standard ASCII character set (such as the resemblance between the numeral "1" and the lower-case letter "l" or the letter "O" and the numeric zero ("0") in some fonts), or characters taken from different languages (such as the character "Β" [Greek capital letter Beta], and the character "B" IPL [Latin capital letter B], or the potential confusion amongst Chinese, Japanese, and Korean character sets). The vulnerability identified by the recently publicised advisory (http://www.shmoo.com/idn/homograph.txt) is focused on how standard punycode-based IDNs offer additional opportunities for homograph IPL attacks. The Internet community recognises that homograph domain name and URI spoofing is a problem that pre-exists the adoption of IDN implementation standards, but increasing the total number of characters available for domain names inevitably increases the opportunities for character confusion and spoofing.
While the recent publicising of the IDN-based homograph attack potential has brought this issue to wider public attention, the possibilities of the expansion of homograph exploits has been a topic of research and discussion within the ICANN community since before the adoption of IDN standards. Significant work has been done to define implementation practices such as IDN Language Registry Tables, and guidelines for restricting or managing mixed-character-set domain name registrations. These and other Best Current Practice guidelines are being defined by the IPL global Internet community to enable the successful use of IDNs.
ICANN is concerned about the potential exacerbation of homograph domain name spoofing as IDNs become more widespread, and is equally concerned about the implementation of countermeasures that may unnecessarily restrict the use and availability of IDNs. ICANN calls for views and positions regarding both homograph vulnerability, which is not unique to IDNs, and the proposed countermeasures, which include having browser support for IDNs turned off by default, while IPL at the same time not protecting against older forms of URI and domain name abuse.
ICANN encourages the global Internet community to participate in this public comment forum as part of an effort to improve public protection from abusive use of domain names while responsibly opening up opportunities for non-Latin IPL language characters to be used in registered domain names.

ipl manufacturer
In a statement ipl manufacturer released today, auDA said it is concerned that the letters may mislead people into believing that their .com domain name has expired when it has not or mislead people into believing that a .com name is available for registration when it is not.
The auDA is also concerned that the letter may induce people to pay ipl manufacturer money to Domains Australia for a service that the company is unable to deliver. Domains Australia is a company controlled by Chesley Rafferty, who is also a director of Domain Names Australia Pty Ltd.
The Federal Court rejected an appeal by DNA and Rafferty last year against a finding in April 2004 that domain name notices distributed in July and September 2003 were "misleading and deceptive."
auDA issued consumer warnings in 2003 saying DNA was sending ipl manufacturer letters or faxes to some domain name registrants regarding the net.au version of their .au domain name being unavailable or unregistered. The communication, headed 'Domain Name Registration', could "easily be mistaken for an invoice," auDA said.
