Order restored to universe as Microsoft surrenders confiscated No-IP domains

Microsoft confiscated the domains in late June through a secretive legal maneuver that didn’t give the dynamic DNS provider an opportunity to oppose the motion in court. Microsoft’s move was part of a legal action designed to dismantle two networks of infected Windows computers that were abusing No.IP in an attempt to evade takedown.”]
