Heh...

Translation:

Hey ****heads - if you don't pull Sitefinder, we'll be sure that your registry provider status gets pulled right out from under you.

For all these reasons, ICANN has today insisted that VeriSign suspend the SiteFinder service, and restore the .com and .net top-level domains to the way they were operated prior to 15 September 2003. If VeriSign does not comply with this demand by 6:00 PM PDT on 4 October 2003, ICANN will be forced to take the steps necessary to enforce VeriSign's contractual obligations.
I like that line.
