I, being a bit larger than the average customer of Register.com,
normally see the same thing if I setup a script to pull current whois
data for all the domains I have registered (most on behalf of others).
However I just confirmed that I get the same response from multiple
locations, so it does look like whois.register.com is having some issues.
