whois.register.com - exceeded maximum number of queries?

Wed Oct 12 21:57:39 UTC 2005

Any reason why the whois.register.com would say "You have exceeded your
maximum number of queries.".  Tried it from 3 differnet boxes that have 3
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????

Thanks

Erik
