Weird WHOIS of a domain I want :S

Hi all,

I want this domain name which is taken, but I can't actually find any whois information apart from the date it was registered and which registrar it is with.

For example:
http://whois.domaintools.com/thatsgottahurt.com

Quote:
Created: 27-Jan-2000
Expires: 27-Jan-2007
Domain is available.
I then did a whois history, 0 results found.

So I then did a whois using register.com's whois site since thats who the domain is with and they said it's available! Yet when I tried ordering it they said it was taken.

I'm really confused, all I want is the owners info so I can contact them :/

Help would be appreciated, thanks!

I'm not sure why that's happening.You can try emailing Register.com...that's my only idea for you. Sorry.

As slider suggests, contact the registrar. If that fails you can report the whois as being incorrect.

The owner is given X days to update the contact info. If they fail to update it, or the registrar can't contact them, the domain will eventually be deleted and released for registration.

Ok thanks guys, i'll contact register.com

I managed to get into a live chat:

Quote:
Steve M: I see that this domain name has been registered through a partner participating in Register.com's Global Partner Network.
He then told me to use the email form on register support section, so I just did that and will await a reply.

They said its a renewal problem, but the name was renewed in January, it's been like 6 months since in that case.
