Even more interesting you can use "host" to discover that www.darklords.org
is at 66.90.74.210. Then you can use modern the modern whois implementation
to discover:
$ whois 66.90.74.210
FDCservers.net LLC FDCSERVERS (NET-66-90-64-0-1)
66.90.64.0 - 66.90.127.255
Sis Networks SIS-NETWORKS (NET-66-90-74-192-1)
66.90.74.192 - 66.90.74.223
# ARIN WHOIS database, last updated 2005-04-28 19:10
# Enter ? for additional hints on searching ARIN's WHOIS database.
Now you have an idea who their ISP is, probably Sis Networks.
