SmartWhois is a useful network information utility that allows you to find all the available information about an IP address, hostname, or domain, including country, state or province, city, name of the network provider, administrator and technical support contact information.

Unlike standard Whois utilities, SmartWhois can find the information about a computer located in any part of the world, delivering all the related records within a few seconds. Even if an IP address cannot be resolved to a hostname, its not a problem for SmartWhois.

Features include:

• Smart operation: The program always queries the right database; you dont have to waste your time trying them all.
• Caching of obtained results.
• Hostname resolution and DNS caching.
• Saving results into an archive: you can build your own database that can be viewed offline.
• Loading and processing lists of IP addresses or domains.
• Integration with CommView: Can be accessed from CommView for quick, easy lookup.
• Integration with Microsoft Internet Explorer and Microsoft Outlook. Look up domain owners and IP addresses in e-mail headers instantly!
• Calling SmartWhois directly from your application. See SmartWhois FAQ.
• Wildcard queries.
