What do you guys think? For now this service provides quite simple (basic) dns lookups for a domains and reverse dns for ip addresses. Any feedback is more than welcome.

Doesn't work in Konqueror -- the query line is cleared, but the response never appears.

More importantly: What's the point? I can do this far more easily using nslookup.

Will fix the konqueror issue.

What is the point? Not everyone knows how to use nslookup, and there are websites out there that charge for this type of service. It is also just a hobby project, brushing up python skills :-).
