I know it doesn't help much at the moment, but never, ever, under any 
circumstances register a domain with GoDaddy. I know you're finding this out 
the hard way, but GoDaddy is the scum of the earth that exists solely to 
make life as miserable as possible. And, yes, they will lock your domain 
name to GoDaddy and make it very difficult to transfer just because they 
can.
