So your favorite site is now displaying the following message:
This domain name has been seized by ICE – Homeland Security Investigations
In this example we will use the recently seized domain “torrent-finder.com”.
What “ICE” have done is changed the IP address that the domain resolved to, to one of their own.
The easiest way to see what the IP address currently is, is by using the “ping” command:
[hm2k@server~]$ ping torrent-finder.com
PING torrent-finder.com (74.81.170.110) 56(84) bytes of data.

1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms

Update: This script is now part of the eggtcl project.
Today, after I decided to hang out in #eggtcl on EFnet, someone asked the following:
<daILLeST> anyine know of a weather tcl that actually works? All the ones I find are outdated, or in another language…
