web hosting

Hi all, how do I find out who hosts the website of a competitor of mine?

I know who they registered the domain name with, but ned to try and contact the hosts (problems with trademark infringement)

Is it possible to find out?

taraaaa! :D

Hi Claire,

Send me the details and I will do some research into it for you!

Should only take a few minutes!

Cheers

go to http://www.whois.sc for .net.com etc or go to http://www.nominet.org.uk for the UK domains i.e. .co.uk etc

Oh ok, I went to whois, to find out who they registered the domains with, but I wsn't sure if this was neccesarily the same as the company they hosted with (I know I have used different companines in the past)

Simon, thanks for the offer, will pm you their web address (this feels very cloak and dagger! :twisted: )
