I am so sick of their query limit

And proxies are soooo slow because I already have crappy connection.

How do you go around the problem?

Cheers

Easy. Just assume most of the 'good' generic .com.au's are taken by OMG/Boomerang/IPSS :/

If your looking just at domains to register, use a domain registrar to search for availability. If your wanting to find contact details on domain owners, then use the whois.

yes but some registrars are recording whois queries and register some of them.

It just happened to me with another ccTld and I was furious.

Which is why you should NEVER search for a domain unless you definitely knew that you were going to buy it there and then.
