Companies registering Web addresses under the new .biz domain will have to wait two more weeks for the Web sites to go live while the overseeing registry company readies its system, the company said Wednesday.

The .biz registry was supposed to be up and running for real-time registrations beginning Oct. 23, but that has been pushed back until Nov. 7, according to NeuLevel.

It was the second setback in less than a week for the Sterling, Va.-based company that has been charged with distributing the new Internet addresses.
