Network Solutions said Tuesday it was trying to restore services after another DNS (Domain Name System) problem.
The latest issue comes two weeks after a pro-Palestinian hacking group redirected websites belonging to several companies whose records were held by Network Solutions, owned by the company Web.com.
Efforts to reach a company spokesperson were not immediately successful.
"We apologize for the issues our customers have experienced as a result of an incident on the Network Solutions DNS," the company wrote on Facebook. "We're in the process of restoring services, and we appreciate your patience as we work toward resolution."
The DNS is a distributed address book for websites, translating domain names such as idg.com into an IP address that can be called into a Web browser. In the past few months, hackers have targeted companies that register domain names and their partners.
