You can simply write a script that prints the result from
http://dnsstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=google.com&type=A - replacing 
google.com with each entry from your file.

Note that some free dns query providers will block you after a certain 
number of requests -- to prevent abuse of the servers.

You can query your local ISP's DNS servers using nslookup (or dig -- on 
*nix) and get the same information.

Ah -- just noticed you menionted ASP. I'm no good at ASP, otherwise I'd 
post an example.  Let me know if you need one in PHP.
