A "whois" returns the following information:

    Domain Name: NETRUNNER-OS.COM
    Registrar: GODADDY.COM, LLC
    Whois Server: whois.godaddy.com
    Referral URL: http://registrar.godaddy.com

    Updated Date: 17-nov-2012

    Expiration Date: 24-jul-2014

The expiration date suggests that the domain is still up and kicking...
