Hello robertskelton-ga and thanks for your answer but please provide
to me a little more clarification of your answer. I want to know that
the websites  registered  in that   www.networksolutions.com  
organization   are   doing  only  'legal businesses' or the  illegal
businesses  have also  registered in that website?  Thanks for your
help.

Clarification of Answer by robertskelton-ga on 12 Apr 2003 20:08 PDT
If you are referring to businesses who have purchased their domain
names via Network Solutions, it would be reasonable to assume that out
of 27 million some are operating an illegal business. The same would
apply if you were referring to buildings or P.O. Box numbers.

Many people who buy .com domain names give false information. No
details other than the email address are ever verified.

This is why a website that ends in .com.au (and i'm sure this applies
to other country codes) is more trustworthy, because to buy one you
need to be a registered business.

After browsing through previous questions you have asked, I would
suggest that, rather than a using a two-step clarification process,
you would receive better answers if your original question stated
exactly what you wish to know.

Rob.

Hello Robertskelton  researcher  I hope  you would be fine.  Please 
take a little  of  your  time  and  provide to me a little more 
clarification  of your  answer.  Robertskelton   if  a  person   types
 "website  address"  in  the  'whois'  webpage  in the  website  of  
that  Network  Solutions  Inc.  organization  and  after  clicking  
its   submit   button   the   "administrative   and   technical  
contact  details"   are   displayed  on  the   screen  of  the  
computer  I  want   to  know  that  what  is  the  "meaning"  of  
that??   After  receiving   your   answer  I  shall  give  *****  
rating  to  your  answer   and   many  thanks  for  that   from 
Shoaib.

Hi Shoaib,

The intended purpose of the "administrative and technical contact
details" is for the owner of the domain name to supply the contact
details of the people in charge of those aspects of the domain name.
They are not required - people can leave them blank. Only the
registrant contact details are required.

Often people just fill them with the same information as the
registrant contact details. Sometimes they will include the details of
the hosting company.

The meaning of the "administrative and technical contact details"
depends on whatever the registrant enters. For example, sometimes when
a domain is for sale, the owner inserts

THIS DOMAIN IS FOR SALE

somewhere in the contact details. In that instance, the meaning is
that the domain name is for sale.

Robertskelton   researcher   please  note  that I  also  want  to 
know   by  those   "administrative and technical contact  details", 
the   person  can  contact  the  "administration"  of   that  
website.  For   example  if  I  type  www.missworld.org  in that  bar 
 in  the  whois   webpage,  then   after  receiving  that  contact 
information    can  I   directly   contact   the  'administration'  of
  that   Miss   World   organization??  Many  thanks   for  your  help
  from   Shoaib.

For your example, missworld.org, the administrative and technical
contact details are the contact details for the hosting service that
missworld.org is using.

It is not the contact details for the administration of the Miss World
organization. The registrant details look more promising:

Registrant Name:Miss World Limited
Registrant Organization:Miss World Limited
Registrant Street1:21 Golden Square
Registrant City:London
Registrant State/Province:London
Registrant Postal Code:W1R 3PA
Registrant Country:GB
Registrant Phone:+44.2077349211
Registrant FAX:+44.2074391218
Registrant Email:missworld@btclick.com

They have a contact form on their website:
http://www.missworld.org/contact.asp

Robertskelton  researcher  with the  information   you  have  provided
 above  so  it  means  that  if  I  want  to  contact  the 
"administration   of  the   WEBSITE"   of  that  www.missworld.org   
organization   then  I   shall   not   be  able  to  contact  the 
administration  of  that   "website".  Please  provide  
'clarification'  to  my  statement   and  thanks   for  your  help  
from  Shoaib.

The WHOIS administration contact details for missworld.org are for
their web hosting company. They host the missworld.org website. They
are not the administration for the Miss World organization.

Robertskelton  researcher  I  am  satisfied  with  your  answer. But 
please  provide  a  little  more  clarification  of  your  answer. 
Robertskelton  you   have  provided  above  "telephone  number, Fax 
number, email  address  and  postal   address"  of  the  hosting  
company  of  the  missworld.org   website   so   therefore  I  want 
to  know  that  if  I  contact  at  those  mentioned   contact  
addresses  and  submit   my   details   for  purchase  of  "products" 
of  the  Miss  World   organization  then  in  this  situation  my 
"message"   for   purchase  of  "products"  of  Miss  World 
organization   can   be    "submitted"  by  that   hosting  company  
to  the  administration  of  the  "website"  of  missworld.org  
organization   so  that  I  shall  be  able  to  purchase  products 
of  the  Miss   World   organization.  Thanks  if  you  provide 
'clarification'  to  my  statement.

Clarification of Answer by robertskelton-ga on 26 Mar 2004 14:24 PST
These details are actually those of the Miss World organization - the
registrant contact details:

Registrant Name:Miss World Limited
Registrant Organization:Miss World Limited
Registrant Street1:21 Golden Square
Registrant City:London
Registrant State/Province:London
Registrant Postal Code:W1R 3PA
Registrant Country:GB
Registrant Phone:+44.2077349211
Registrant FAX:+44.2074391218
Registrant Email:missworld@btclick.com

Your query regarding the purchase of products should be sent to the
above people. However, using their contact form might get a quicker
reply:
http://www.missworld.org/contact.asp
