Incredibly enough, I contacted the maintainer about this a while ago. Here is the cut & paste:

Looks like we forgot to renew the domain registration.  I was leaning towards the idea of moving it to something like sourceforge, but I wanted to clean up some things first.

I was trying to investigate some the ip management tools and followed the link
www.freeipdb.org and was more than a little upset with what I found.  This
domain name apparently has been taken by a porn site that is wanting to
auction it off.  does anyone know if the project died or if it changed domain
names.

        I have removed the reference to it in the wiki page, but there are other
references to the site on the NANOG site.  I am not sure who will need to
remove the links, but they no longer point to an ip management tool.

        If the utility still exist I would be intersted in finding it, as I saw not
able to dig it up on a quick Google search.
