Weird, but it works fine by me:
cow:/ $ whois trustfabric.co.za
Registered
%referral url:http://www.coza.net.za/cgi-bin/whois.sh?Domain=trustfabric
cow:/ $ whois trustfabric.co.uk
Domain name:
trustfabric.co.uk
You probably mean why the results are so different?
In co.za anyone can register a domain and it is not limited to
just registrars, so it is also open to much more abuse than
others, I guess there are many many more reasons as well,
have a look at the archives to see how far this discussion
have come
