Is there a way to search for a certain phone number and to whom it
belongs?  I have caller id and this number keeps showing up and it
just
states "Ogden, Utah" and I'd like to find out whose number it is.  The
phone number is (801)689-9520.

I have dialed the number, it rings twice, there's silence then I'm cut off.
Answer

It seems to me like a simple two stage process:
(1) Dial the number in question
(2) Ask "to whom am I speaking to?"

I agree. There is a good chance they will identify themselves before
you even say a word. This is the cheapest, easiest, most efficient way
to find out. Remember to turn off caller ID!

In Google, you can type the phone number in this format:

(NNN) NNN-NNNN

in the search window, and if any of the reverse directories have the
number listed, it will come up.  However, that number does not appear
to have a listing in any of the reverse directories.

It's probably an automatic dialer or a number from which pre-paid
phone card service originates.  I believe the pre-paid phone service
is more a relay box than an answerable telephone number.

Roger, the storage question is still locked by GA and I recently sent
them an email to alert them to the mislock.  I have the answer ready
to post when the question comes open.  Thanks for your continued
patience.  :)
