The main purpose of this tool is to help administrators and home users to easily find the abuse contact for a specific IP or host address.

It uses the following Regional Internet Registries (RIR) whois : ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, JPNIC, KRNIC, LACNIC, BRNIC and the ERX project data.
It also uses the SwiNOG/FRnOG routeserver data to get informations about AS.

The technology used to find the appropriate informations about a specific network has been tested for a few years, however, some bugs can still exist. Don't hesitate to report those by following the procedure detailed in the README (*nix) or README.txt (Win) file included with the software.
