The following queries can be performed on this web-site. Where possible there are cross-links between the various queries. From these pages you are able to lookup:

• a person using a NIC handle
• What objects a person is a contact for
• who owns an IP address or address block
• who owns an IPv6 address or address block
• who owns a domain name
• DNS information for a domain name
• Check a host or domain on multiple name servers
• Who owns an Autonomous System Number
• Frequently Asked Questions about this site

I have put some more work into the searching and it will now look up a lot more domains than previously. If your results come out with no coloured boxes then it means I don't (yet) know how to parse the raw output, but I probably will soon.

Currently this set of webpages is able to understand the output of over 110 NIC (Network Information Centre) whois servers located around the world. That's over 25 different output formats. More are added each day.

Autonomous System Whois Lookup

This page looks up Autonomous System Numbers found in the various registries.

Received Spam from Nigeria? Read this!!

If you recieve email from Nigerian sources proposing either a "legitimate" business deal or one where they have a large sum of money and need assistance getting it out it is extremely likely you have been emailled by fraudsters. Read more on the 419 Coalion Website about this crime and how dangerous it can be to you.

Problems? Suggestions?

I'm always looking for suggestions and new NICs to add to the system. If your favourite NIC is not working here let me know. Or if you have a problem with a particular lookup I'd like to know that too.
