Any reason why the whois.register.com would say "You have exceeded your

differnent public ip address. Tried the web gui too and I get the same
lookup error. This looks specific to whois.register.com.

Is anyone else seeing the same thing????

I, being a bit larger than the average customer of Register.com, normally see the same thing if I setup a script to pull current whois data for all the domains I have registered (most on behalf of others). However I just confirmed that I get the same response from multiple locations, so it does look like whois.register.com is having some issues.
