  I own theProspekts.com bought from one.com however while editing my settings I mistakenly changed the domain name from ‘theprospekts.com’ to ‘prospekts.com’ and now every time i try and get to my admin to edit the website the page goes straight to HugeDomains.com asking me to purchase ‘prospekts.com’ but I want my old domain name back

  I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble. However, theProspekts.com is a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which we really can’t help with.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation and support sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at http://codex.wordpress.org/ and http://wordpress.org/support/ Your webhost’s support team is another good resource.
