Is it possible to look up who has previously owned a domain you just bought? Sorry, if I wasnt so lazy I could probably find this out for myself. Any help appreciated.

Thank you, yes it's a dot com, but I currently own it. I'm just wondering is it possible to find out who previously owned it.

Thanks guys, I didn’t find what I was looking for but I can see that it was parked between 2003 and 2004. It's not real important anyhow I was just being curious.

That Waaaaaayback Machine never ceases to amaze me.
