There's that bad karma again! Steve, what horrible evil things did you do in your previous life?-)
Incidentally, I just had a domain name registrar try to autorenew my account, even though I'd repeatedly
unchecked the "autorenew" entry in my account. However, they failed because the credit card # they had for me
was a 'virtual' credit card which I'd created with a very low upper maximum and early expiry date. My
CC company (mbna) lets me create these virtual credit cards at will, and it is a very nifty feature that I now use a lot. I think several CC companies now provide this service.
