I had similar problems. I think the virtualsky.org has gone away (or at least I get connection refused when I try to go to www.virtualsky.org). Which is an interesting problem with registries...keeping them up to date. Should the registry do a periodic aliveness test on the services? Should it also make sure that the service behaves correctly under certain failure conditions (e.g. RA out of range). These will be things we will have to debate when that time comes (what is the responsability of the registry).
There are more than 8 catalogs offered though...the combobox with the list of services should have a scroll bar on the side as the list is rather large (50+). Not all behave well though. There are all of the services that are listed in the jhu conesearch registry (http://skyserver.pha.jhu.edu/VOConeProfile/).
