I found nslookup.exe already on my PC and tried it. No matter what .com domain I gave it (even .com domains with servers in Europe), it returned the same IP address for the domain: 208.68.143.55. That IP address belongs to FAST Search & Transfer Inc. in Massachusetts. It would also show the domain with .socal.rr.com appended. For example, given my www.rossde.com domain, I would see www.rossde.com.socal.rr.com. For the domain shaw.ca (an E-mail domain based in Canada), it gave correct results without any .socal.rr.com appended. In all cases, it timed-out after 2 seconds on DNS requests. -- David E.
