Incredibly enough, I contacted the maintainer about this a while ago. Here
is the cut & paste:

Looks like we forgot to renew the domain registration.  I was leaning
towards the idea of moving it to something like sourceforge, but I wanted to
clean up some things first.

The page is available at:

FreeIPdb -
It seems like freeipdb.org is now owned by a domain squatter or
something similar. Do you guys still have the code running around
somewhere? I found some of it on archive.org, and would like to mirror
it or something, as I like the product and work at a datacenter that can
do that kind of thing.

Please let me know!

I was trying to investigate some the ip management tools and followed the
link
www.freeipdb.org and was more than a little upset with what I found.  This
domain name apparently has been taken by a porn site that is wanting to
auction it off.  does anyone know if the project died or if it changed
domain
names.

        I have removed the reference to it in the wiki page, but there are
other
references to the site on the NANOG site.  I am not sure who will need to
remove the links, but they no longer point to an ip management tool.

        If the utility still exist I would be intersted in finding it, as
I saw not
able to dig it up on a quick Google search.
