Some are at InterNIC? What registrar is that? In the past, "internic" was a reference to the monopoly registry operated by network solutions (before they were a part of verisign and before ICANN). If by chance you are referring to network solutions or verisign, the verisign registry WHOIS is at whois.crsnic.net and network solutions WHOIS is at whois.networksolutions.com. The WHOIS at whois.internic.net was officially discontinued about 2 years ago, however I see someone has unofficially resurrected it (its returning verisign registry information).
