WhoisView is a Windows software for finding the owner of an IP block or domain name. A command line version is also available (only for Windows).

The main feature of WhoisView is its simplicity. Type in a host name or IP address and it will retrieve the ownership information by digging through various authoritative whois servers. WhoisView will find information all other similar tools are unable to or don't bother to locate.

There are no complicated options. You may specify additional whois server for country code domains if required. The software may be minimized to system tray.

WhoisView may be used to find information like:

• Who owns a domain name
• Who owns a specified IP address block
• Who is the web hosting provider for a website
• Who provides the DNS, email handling and other services for a domain
