Anyone know how to look up .tv domain names ?

(1/4) > >>

Carol Haynes:
I have a client who has a TV domain name. The person responsible for the website has gone missing without leaving any details of where it is registered etc.

How do you look up .tv names?

I have tried the usual WHOIS sites but they either come up with nothing at all or just that the name is registered and no details!

The domain is thegeorge.tv

Anyone got and ideas?

rgdot:
.tv is a verisign company, if verisign doesn't show it then you won't find it elsewhere (unless some site or software knows a trick)

http://www.watch.tv/

Sneaky  :P

Thanks that is really useful.

Interestingly the dns servers are not what I thought they were as another domain points to the same website and has different DNS servers.

Maybe there are two copies of the website out there on different servers ??
