1. Not sure, but

in Unix it's "whois" as in:

whois democraticunderground.com

and to be honest Microsoft copied Unix a lot so it might be the same.

sorry, new to Linux, and wanted to try it.

the only trouble is you must drop the www. so www.cnn.com becomes cnn.com

7. OK

If you're at a MSDOS command prompt type "regedit"
If you're in Windoze use explorer; go to the windows folder and click on regedit.
Once regedit is started use the find function.


On edit: in MSDOS, if your path does not include the windows directory, CD \windows then regedit.
