This small patch adds IP lookup capabilities to the watchdog module
using the free external site http://whois.sc. Basically, the IP becomes
clickable, and a new window opens which displays a lot of data about the
address in question. Might be useful for site administrators who need to
look at suspicious activites, spiders, harvesters etc.


I got this idea from the phpBB bulletin board software, which offers
this feature for administrators.


One line patch attached.
