..... the two letters at the end of an email/website address which denote the country in which that email/website was registered or whatever?

Is there an online directory of such, and for quick info, where is '.ie'?

Thanks

Thanks fellas.

I had IE in my head as Eire, but then "i before e" got in there and cast some doubts!
