our WHOIS search can not be accessed. This is because there has been some
issues with our ISP (liquid Telcom) connection this evening. Liquid Telcom team
on this list will confirm that KENIC’s technical team has been in contact with
them since 5:30 pm today. Our second ISP connection has not been able to pick
up.
