And still I can see the smileys and the site. 

[Glenn]

How about flushing the DNS?

[Rik]

No, still works for me, and in IE8.

[Glenn]

I just flushed mine, now I see the same as you.

[Rik]

  Weird, isn't it. That's obviously the next thing for Den to try.

[Ray]

That doesn't make any difference for me, Rik, still seeing the holding page.

[Rik]

Curiouser and curiouser.    Can you trace OK, Ray?

[Glenn]

Did you do it via the dos prompt? ipconfig /flushdns

[Ray]

From the dos prompt, Glenn.

Rik, this is my traceroute.

[Ray]

I've just tried it on my phone using the 3G network and it comes up with the same page.

[Rik]

Could you try with Norton, Ray?

[pctech]

I'm seeing the GoDaddy holding page as Glenn is, cant do a tracert from here as the network firewall blocks them (am at work)

[Rik]

This is plain weird...

[Ray]

Could you try with Norton, Ray?

Changed to Norton I'm still seeing the parking page, Rik.

[Rik]

I honestly have no ideas left. How about if you Google Best smileys?

[pctech]

looks like the DNS records on individual DNS hosts are expiring which is why you are all seeing different things because the registrar has directed all requests back to its page to prompt the owner to pay up.

[Ray]

I get the same, Rik.  

[pctech]

I expect OpenDNS and Norton will start seeing the holding page soon too.

[Glenn]

I was seeing the holding page until I flushed my DNS

I'm sure that's the reason for it. I recently migrated a website to a faster server (same provider) and the DNS propagation was somewhat slow. The resulting strangeness tied my brain in knots for a couple of days until it dawned on me I was working on two sites, both containing the same content 

[pctech]

Just tested from home (using Zen's DNS) and am getting the GoDaddy holding page.

[Gary]

Still seeing the domain renewal page here this morning. "NOTICE: This domain name expired on 04/08/2011 and is pending renewal or deletion"

[Simon]

Same here.
