I just downloaded Karen's WHOIS lookup and how cool it but i was horrified to see my name and address come up when I looked up my domain name.

I have looked up the domain name of some sites and what is returned is something along the lines of "this person has opted-out of the WHOIS lookup"
or something to that effect.

Does anyone know how to hide your indentity/address from WHOIS lookup???

I just use an email address (@yahoo.com) that is setup solely for domain name spam. No need to pay for it.

But, yeah. Login to your account at your registrar and you can change your WHOIS info.

Technically, yes. But there is no real enforcement.

Very useful. NameCheap.com offers it for free with every new domain registration.
