Good question. I'd have to agree with you on that. I'm just familure with gtwhois so I figured why not make it work. Hopefully they will respond to Shawn's email with a positive note. Else, I'll find a new whois search :) Thanks guys! .......................

Is there anyway to spoof that in DQSD? I'm not sure if it's possible to spoof the refer(r)er from within DQSD, my guess is not without considerable work. However, I wonder how kosher that would be...? If GeekTools recognized this as a problem, and took measures, maybe they don't want to expose their service other than from the actual web. I'm not sure if there is some 'DQSD code of honor', but I suggest the gtwhois search should probably be dropped from DQSD instead. Besides, there are like 7 other whois tools (? whois) bundled with DQSD, so it's not like gtwhois is unique. Just my 2c - other opinions?
