IMURSTAR.COM was registered on November 5, 2012, and is set to expire on November 5, 2014. This gives it about 14 years of history. The domain is managed by GABIA; INC. (IANA ID 244) and is past its expiry date. Unauthorised transfer are prevented by its status flags. The registrant country on record is KOREA; REPUBLIC OF. It uses the nameservers ns1.cafe24.co.kr, ns1.cafe24.com, ns2.cafe24.co.kr and ns2.cafe24.com. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider.
