The weirdest problem with domain name I've ever seen !

Hello,
I have problem with my customers domain name and as you guys know its hard to explain that the problem is beyond our control.
Ok. here it is. The customer has a domain name:

THENORTHENDONLINE.COM

the domain name expired about 2 weeks ago but she renewed it.
So the problem is that if you go to WWW.THENORTHENDONLINE.COM it points to IP address 64.247.34.58 - not my server ! Any other host name
like THENORTHENDONLINE.COM , MAIL.THENORTHENDONLINE.COM , FTP.THENORTHENDONLINE.COM
points to proper IP 64.191.7.107

This is not DNS set up problem, here is DNS zone:

---------------------------
; WwwAcct 2.5
; Zone file for thenorthendonline.com
@ 14400 IN SOA ns1.vipsnet.com. root.indiana.vipsnet.com. (
1024690002 ; serial, todays date+todays
28800 ; refresh, seconds
7200 ; retry, seconds
3600000 ; expire, seconds
86400 ) ; minimum, seconds

thenorthendonline.com. 14400 IN NS ns1.vipsnet.com.
thenorthendonline.com. 14400 IN NS ns2.vipsnet.com.
thenorthendonline.com. 14400 IN A 64.191.7.107

localhost.thenorthendonline.com. 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1

thenorthendonline.com. 14400 IN MX 0 thenorthendonline.com.

mail 14400 IN CNAME thenorthendonline.com.
www 14400 IN CNAME thenorthendonline.com.
ftp 14400 IN CNAME thenorthendonline.com.
---------------------------------------

But that's NOTHING. So we have removed DNS servers completely!

I have just checked few traceroutes from www.traceroute.org.

Have you ever experienced such thing?

I have sent email to OpenSRS but got no reply.

Do you know whats going on?
