This software allows users to easily gather information on IP addresses or domain names, providing details such as location, contact information, and web server specifications, as well as ping round-trip time. It's a handy tool for obtaining comprehensive data on any given online location.

One of the great things about HotWhoIs is that you can retrieve information about the organization or the internet service provider that owns the IP address. This includes information about the country, state, city, address, contact phone numbers and e-mail addresses. The software supports the new data format used by arin.net and forwards queries on the Latin America IP addresses to the lanic.net server.
In addition, HotWhoIs uses 88 whois servers all around the world to obtain information on 120 domain zones. The software can also query whois servers with plain web POST requests and display the results in the regular format. Currently, such requests can be performed for Argentinean (.ar) domain names.
Furthermore, the program in most cases can determine the name and version of the remote web server. This is very useful as it can also ping remote hosts so you can check its availability. The utility also supports SOCKS 4 and 5 proxy servers and can perform whois requests from a network connected to Internet via these kinds of proxies.
Overall, HotWhoIs is an amazing software that has proven to be very useful in the tech world. Its ability to retrieve all available information on IP addresses and domain names is second to none. With the many features that it has, it is definitely a tool that everyone in the industry should have.
