Due Diligence Boards  updated 11-6-2015

If you would like to check up on who owns a particular domain name then you can do it at the following address. http://www.allwhois.com. Type in the URL you wish to find out about and you should be able to obtain the registered name and address of the said domain name. You may find that you have to make a few adjustments, like deleting "http://www" to obtain the information you want but it’s a handy tool to have. So if you can identify a name that was associated with a bad program then you can help yourself to avoid these people in the future. Also, here is a list of Due Diligence boards you can visit. But I must warn you not to be influenced by some of the comments, use some of these only as a limited information source. Some of these are after sensationalism to promote their own site; some are out in left field with reality; but you can also glean some useful information if you take some of what you read with tongue in cheek.
