The various IP blocks were mostly allocated by IANA (Internet assigned number authority; back before ICANN took over). That particular IP happens to be one "owned" by KPNQwest in Oslo, Norway. There are various ways to find out the relevant information (some whois servers will provide the information, or you can use trace-route utilities, such as tracert on Windows, for example).
