The site that used to provide that service only provides a web-based
version now, not WHOIS-based.  They provide their source code for the
WHOIS server (http://www.fr2.cyberabuse.org/whois/?page=downloads),
though, so I just built my own instance and pointed our installs at that
server by copying libexec/Lookup.pm to libexec/Lookup_site.pm and
changing the whois_socket setup in the code.  It would be nice to get
that changed upstream to something suitable, but that works for now. 
Shouldn't be terribly hard to change the code to use HTTP rather than
WHOIS I'd think.

Regards,
Mark
