Well, you can try this:\n\nhttp://www.geobutton.com/IpLocator.htm\n\nBut be warned, it's probably only going to give you the location of the ISP, which may not necessarily be in the same state as the user.  Good luck.

if you check the IP address, you should be able to track it down.

The Netstat -an command will show all established sessions on your machine, but won't identify which one is the chat session.  Most likely, the session will be to Yahoo's server, not directly to the other person's IP address.

I would suggest "Active Ports" from Smartline. It monitors all port traffic on your PC and allows you to see the originating, and destination IP address for any traffic either coming in, or going out of your computer. Also, you can use a program like "visual route" to track the IP down to its originating hub geographicly speaking

If you are using windows xp, then double-click on the connection icon in the system tray (with two computers), In the "*Connection_name* Status" window, in the details tab, see for client IP address and that will be your ip address.\n\nElse, you can also use http://www.ipaddressworld.com or http://www.whatismyip.com to determine your IP address

assuming you know the IP address go to this website to plot it on a map: http://visualroute.visualware.com/

You can do many things for this.  There are a lot of free/shareware/and programs for sale that do this exact thing.  otherwise you can DIY rather simply.  Go to start, run and type in cmd to get the command prompt (its also under all programs)  then type tracert (trace route) this will allow you to trace ever address that your network runs through basically by sending out a ping that bounces off the network addresses and returns the info.  You have to supply a target address for this to work properly.

Sorry for the wrong posts that people have told you. \n\nYES you can know the persons ipaddress IF HE emailed you.\nIf he sent you one email, then you could view the headers of that email to see the originating IP of that user. For example if your using hotmail, you can goto settings and enable advanced headers, then when you view his email you could veiw raw email meaning you would see all the header information of that email. Same thing applies for AOL.\n\nYou CANNOT know the ip address if you just have the EMAIL address. Since an email address is virtual. MSN Servers own that so you cannot know his email address unless you two have some sort of communication together. Like chatting, sending emails, sending files, anything that puts you two guys together. By a simple packet sniffer you could acheive that.\n\nGood luck on finding the IP :)

You can find out where the IP address is from  www.arin.net and type in the address in the who is box.  However, to get the actual "owner" of the IP address at -that point in time- would require a subpeona and a valid reason to obtain that information.

everytime you log on to the net you take an "IP address".\n\nIts basicly your position on the net.\n\nYou can do a whois search to find out where the IP is from, in general, but, you can not get an axact address based on an IP.

Do you mean IP Address? And what do you mean by trace: Find somebody's location or IP Address?

Try TCPView http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/TcpView.html this shows all the IP addresses connected to your PC. However, it may only reach the chat provider. On my PC is shows different IP addresses for every conversation window, however, not the IP address of the person I am chatting to.\n\nI doubt whether you could locate automatically without directly asking for the persons IP address.

netstat -a\nthis will show your pc's connections, so it will show the ip of yahoos msgr server but not your friends that are also connected to msngr.
