I would like to do a whois script to check for .com.my, .net.my, etc.
Have been checking out some scripts, including mattsscripts and mrscripts. However, looks like they are using whois.mynic.net.my which restricts 20 searches per hour for the same IP.

This is stated on the whois.mynic.net.my page:
Please note that the query limit is 20 per hour from the same IP.
If you have recently modified your domain name data, it may take up to
10 minutes for the modifications to be updated on the WHOIS database

So, how do you get around this??

Any hint would be much appreciated.

I guess finding another whois server that has the .com.my info would be best. Anyone knows an alternative whois server for whois.mynic.net.my?

I think the whois script by modernbill is able to do that query without 20 queries per ip per hour limitation. Anyone has any idea how they do it?

Thanks.
