in thread Verisign Hijack all possible .com .net domains and destroy Email::Valid, Net::DNS, gethostbyname() etc

If you're truly interested in preventing these type of abuses in the future (and fixing this situation) I'd suggest getting involved immediately. Write your representatives (standard rules apply: be nice, coherent, and know what you're talking about) and take further steps as necessary.
For the people who don't live in the States, do as I did, and sign the online petition.
