Back on the WHOIS issue
 

I'm using betterwhois and allwhois and they suck, they have pop-ups and half the domains don't display the whois anymore.

Does any WHOIS site work for everything?

Here's a new one, it's good and it does wildcard searches:
http://www.whoisreport.com/

I should also mention that no WHOIS is going to show you all results anymore because some registrars (stargate, godaddy, some others) don't seem to like to return results much of the time.

holy shit, that just got bookmarked. :thumbsup

What the fuck is that? I type in adult.com and get a bunch of other shit?

Greetings all you webmasters,
I see you breeched the top 10 referrals for this month. I thought I would stop by and answer any question you guys have.

What you are seeing when you search for "adult.com" is every domain that has the word adult in it. You may want to refine the search a little and block numbers like this.

http://www.whoisreport.com/?q=adult&...red=2&qrows=20

You will see a lot more websites that are active. But if you are look for all active websites with the word "adult" in it then do a search like this.

http://www.whoisreport.com/?q=adult&...red=A&qrows=20

But the really cool features is to look through all deleted domains like this.

http://www.whoisreport.com/?q=adult&...red=1&qrows=20

We hope you like the site!
