Dear Arnold
From the RIPE NCC website you can find an Abuse Finder tool http://apps.db.ripe.net/search/abuse-finder.html
This is a first iteration of a user tool to help with finding abuse contact information in the RIPE Database. It tries to find the abuse contact(s) for an Internet resource on a 'best effort' basis.
One of the difficulties of automating this process at the moment is many abuse contacts are in "remarks:" attributes. These cannot be parsed by a script with any degree of confidence. This was one of the starting points from which the 2011-06 policy proposal originated.

I tried that now. It's very confusing.
It's not at all clear if the search box will take an IP address or not ..
Yes, thats true. There should be simple version directly on RIPEs homepage. "Got abused ? Enter IP or hostname here to find the right contact ->" And the more advanced version should be hidden behind an "Advanced search" link. Kind regards, Frank
I tried one and got back a "result" which I could click on .. When I did I got "ERROR:115: invalid search key"
Regards
Michele
