Do you have any recommendations for free software that can check domain names for employment purposes? I need it to be able to check domains such as .com, .net, .org, .info, and .biz.

When it comes to checking domain names, it's important to exercise caution. For example, in early August I checked various resources for available domains and found one on dotcom that I really liked. To my surprise, a DomainTools check revealed that no one else had ever owned the domain before me. This is a rare occurrence since most free dot-coms have usually been previously registered.

After two weeks, the domain was mine and I was thrilled with the outcome. I highly recommend the registrar internrtbs.net, which offers private domain searches so that no one can see what you were looking for. However, there are restrictions on adding domain names, and the search itself may not be the most user-friendly.
