Thanks Mike for your quick reply.  Is it easy to transfer the domain to 
my company?  Will the registrar ask many questions and corporate 
documentations?

The reason I am asking this is somebody came to my place earlier today 
to ask about training courses.  I thought it should have been easier to 
browse the web and get the info and now I am concerned about this.

More than likely you will have to do paperwork to transfer the ownership of
the domain.  The only way they are going to know that it is really you is
to send you the paperwork to get filled out.

I've personally never and to do a transfer or had any issues with anyone
actually showing up at my door and I've had my domain for ages.

It's relatively easy but still requires a written agreement from the 
owner or legal representative of the domain, and detailed WHOIS info for 
the new owner.

What does that even have to do with domain registration ?

Thanks for the update.  Didn't know they existed.  I've been around from the
ground up, long before these creeps appeared with spam and hackers and DDOS
a-holes.

Considering what has happened over the years, I consider myself fairly lucky
in many respects (except for all the spam).

Yes, you can transfer it, as you are the registered entity and you are assigning
the ownership to your company.  Ask your registrar how.

An no, Mike, there are anonymysing services, just look up rowe-clan.net.  Godaddy
and others sell this stuff, it is great for keeping your mailbox clear of "urgent,
please renew today!" spam.
