DNS Lookup

DNS Lookup is a small-sized and portable piece of software that you can use to discover the IP addresses of any host name. It features just a couple of basic options that can be easily figured out, even by those with little or no experience in networking utilities.

Since there is no installation involved, you can drop the executable file in any part of the hard disk and just click it to run.

Another possibility is to save DNS Lookup to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any PC effortlessly and without previously installing anything.

Worth taking into account is that the Windows registry and Start menu do not get updated with new entries, and no extra files are created on the HDD without your consent, leaving no traces behind after removing it.

The GUI is user-friendly, made from a single window with a straightforward structure. You can just input the host name or URL and click a button to immediately find out the IP addresses associated with it.

Thanks to the right-click menu, it is possible to copy an entry to the Clipboard or export the entire list to a plain text document for closer examination and safekeeping. There are no other noteworthy options available here.

As expected, CPU and RAM consumption was low during DNS Lookup's runtime. It has a good response time, loads IP addresses rapidly and works smoothly, without causing Windows to hang, crash or pop up error messages. Although it does not integrate rich features, DNS Lookup offers a very simple solution for finding out the IP addresses belonging to any host, and it is geared toward all user levels.
