The company was originally __I__nternet __C__ompany __O__f __N__ew __Z__ealand (ICONZ). It got bought and incorporated into AsiaOnLine, the parent company residing in Singapore or Hong Kong, or somewhere, can't remember. The parent company eventually closed down (2001/2002?) and it became a NZ company again.

+----
+The parent company was Asia Online Ltd which is still trading. The merger of Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand proved to be too much of a financial drain and the company "Asia Online" (which was seperate from the parent company) was liquidated.
+
+The Assets were brought by the Dresden Group who also owned E3 wireless and VISP and the name was reverted back to ICONZ (Internet Company of New Zealand being a trade mark that was still owned by the original owner)
+
+The company liquidated in October/November of 2001 (I think it may have been first week in November)
