    Default searching a phone number

    Just wondering if there is a website like www.whitepages.com.au that you can search a phone number and get the name,
    instead of searching for the name to get the number.

    nope.
    There was once a program called greypages, some guy reverse engineered the cd you got with a phone book or something. Since then they've stopped that by encrypting the ###ola out of their data.

    Short answer.... Nope, nothing out there that is available unless you wanna make something yourself lol

    Yep, it isn't as though people are going to advertise they have it but still available
    If ignorance is bliss why aren't there more happy people around ?

    its avalible exactly as requested, online and all you have to do is put in the number. i think it could be a little out of date though... but it sometimes comes back with a winner

    I really don't see why privacy should be an excuse, because with the phone book you have the persons name, address, and phone number, so you still have all the information that you would get if you could search by number.

    The only downside is you can't search the number.
