Program Description

SkWHOIS ActiveX Control is a powerful, intelligent, flexible, and lightweight WHOIS ActiveX control. It allows developers to integrate the WHOIS/NICNAME protocol message sending capability into their applications. SkWHOIS ActiveX Control can be used to retrieve information about a specific domain, such as the registrant's company name, address, or contact information. In Autodetect mode it can intelligently query the right remote database based on the query type (host IP address, host name, or domain name) and on the corresponding designated WHOIS server. In many countries different subdomains have different designated WHOIS databases, SkWHOIS ActiveX control can easily handle that. It can also query any WHOIS server with any request necessary. SkWHOIS has an extensive database that contains all existing Top Level Domain information and many second-level and even third level domains. This information can be accessed, modified, added to, or customized as necessary. It can be used from any 32-bit Windows development environment, including Visual Basic, Visual C++, and Delphi. SkWHOIS ActiveX Control is capable of processing multiple WHOIS requests simultaneously. It is fully compliant with RFC 954. SkWHOIS ActiveX Control comes with complete documentation, sample code, and working demo programs.
