Need a macro to run a WHOIS on data (IP or URL) in a column and get name and contact information.

I would like to accomplish something similar to https://www.datanumen.com/blogs/create-whois-lookup-tool-via-excel-vba/ or https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/780655-doing-whois-excel.html

I have a column that may contain either a URL or an IP address. I would like the macro to search that column and perform a WHOIS on the data and get information such as the registrant name, registrant organization, registrant email, and abuse email if present. Sometimes data is missing like abuse email or organization, as shown in my example. So I want it to continue and not error out. In my example the first 3 rows are how I would enter data, the next 3 are how similar, real world example, rows would look after the macro is run.

Why not use one of the examples above? Well the first cannot get the email because it's an image and not text. If I use another WHOIS URL, it breaks. It also breaks with a IP. The second example is a little confusing and I'm not sure how to alter it to make it work for me.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
