Find Out Who Is Hosting a Spam Site
If you’ve ever wanted an easy way to find out who is hosting a site so you can send them a DMCA notice for spam, there’s a new tool on the block to help you. Who Is Hosting This? enables you to find out who is hosting any web site. Their FAQ, which has an entry reading “This probably means that the owners of this website have bought an IP range and are self-hosted” indicates how they obtain the data, which is by IP range assignment. So they’ll give you the underlying provider of service, which in the hunt against spam, can be a powerful tool.
This screenshots are looking up information for three spammers ripping me off:
Unfortunately a bug in Who Hosts This causes the last lookup to fail, and instead of saying “unkown host,” the service simply just spins. Also, the last address is a bit odd, as it belongs to a spammer in the Philippines but hosted in Canada by Shaw. Still, 2 DMCA notices are better than none!

Thank you for that site!!! I recently got splogged on one of my articles and I am now trying to get in contact with these sploggers to get rid of my stuff from their site!!
