afaik its owned by canonical, just to prevent others masquerading as us, and phishing your passwords.

It looks like a mirrored UF site. But stay cautious, do not try to log in at that site

Those domains should just forward here without masking.

Thanks, and now I know how to look this up myself :) 192.168.0.1 must be your own dns server? Would this work if I was using my isp's or Open DNS as well?

nslookup is a service which is to be provided by every DNS server.
