    then a black command dos box will come up

    then type whois domainname.eu (in the dos box not in the run box)

    You can't run the .exe standalone, it has to be in a proper DOS/command box. This way it won't close after running.

    thanks! it works :)

    Is my whois tool not connecting because the server is not responding or because of our company firewall - is it working for anyone else?

    What WHOIS tool are you using? the sysinternals one works well with the EURid WHOIS database.

    This site works well too:

    Namesco seems to have worked nicely for me, taken my cash and everything seemed ok.

    Do you actually own the domain now?

    I havent had an email yet but the two domains I wanted are now unavailable. I suppose this is going to take time and I can't get the whois.eu to work.
