You often need to look up from an IP address to findout what a site does. This is often needed for the 017's in a log and also for Hosts entries.
Sam Spade from here: http://www.samspade.org/
It can be used from the site, and also download the windows exe file for use from your own machine.
Also DNS Lookup from DNSstuff: http://www.dnsstuff.com/
They can also be used in reverse to look up an IP from the domain name.
