I don’t think it’s really an attack on the domain Perl.com. Rather, Perl was just one of the domains stolen at the same time as others. I’m aware of at least half a dozen or so domains that were stolen at the same time, by the same domain thief. This was not an attack or hijacking. It was the stealing of domain names. What these domain thieves do is steal the domain, transfer it to another registrar, then attempt to sell them. In this case, Perl.com just got caught up in a list of domains that were stolen at the same time. Others stolen at the same time also start with the letter P.
