FYI, I came across this website http://combat.uxn.com/ that is pretty good for finding information about ip''s, domains, etc.. It does worldwide whois, IP Whois, ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, Zone Transfer, Traceroute, Decode obfuscated URLs, URL Decoder, cloaked url decoder, etc.. It can be used for tracing spammers\abusers. I usually use http://www.samspade.org/ but they are off-line. Mike
