Ok, can someone tell me the deal with Domain registration and what should be availible - as far as I was aware, you had to give your name and contact details when you register a domain unless its for personal use, and I thought this was a UK rule, but it seems that Scotland allows anonymous registration through privacy companies (who register the domain as being private with a private address).
My experience has been that you have to give your name and contact details when you register a domain but that, once you've registered and if you are a personal user, you can opt out of having your contact details available on the whois domain look-up service.
