Go to http://firefox.name/

Result: HTTP error 404
Expected: Redirect to http://firefox.com/

I agree that the 404 is bad but it's hard to say that the nameservers are actually incorrect.  Need to track down site owners - seth, any ideas?
For me it is easy to say because I was an owner of this domain. When that domain was trasfered to Mozilla someone forgot to change DNS servers.

Everthing was working fine until I changed my hosting provider. They (my previous hosting provider) still offer limited functionality for free - this is why you can see 404 instead of "cannot find the server firefox.name"

Current DNS servers: nsh.interia.pl, dnsh.poczta.fm
Okay, I've done the following:

I've changed the nameservers at MarkMonitor to ns2.markmonitor.com (and friends) and setup a forwarding to http://firefox.com/ .  Will take a couple hours to refresh.

http://web-sniffer.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ffirefox.name&submit=Submit&http=1.1&gzip=yes&type=GET&uak=0 -- firefox.name 302s to "firefox.com", which also 302s to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html or /personal.html, etc.

Verified FIXED.
