your computer has its very own ip address, through the ip address, people can find out, where you are from you internet connection, there is also some personal information, but dont worry, only the government is cappable of doing this, but beware of hackers!

Whoa ! dont pay anyone for some dumb thin like this instead you can trt the following sites, just enter the host name or the IP address you want to trace.\nhttp://visualroute.visualware.com/\nhttp://network-tools.com/\nhttp://www.urgentclick.com/address_trace.php\nhttp://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm?getlocation\ni prefer the last site i.e. geobytes as they provide much more comprehensive list as compared to others.

Your IP address is always going to be visible and/or logged by any system you connect to. Just because someone says "I have your IP address" it doesn't mean your system is compromised. You can even view your IP address at sites such as www.myip.dk. It is very easily obtainable when browsing the internet. If you do not want sites to be able to access it when you browse them, use a proxy server, eg. www.phpproxy.com. If people are obtaining your IP through MSN Messenger, don't send or receive files through it, and turn off file and folder sharing. \n\nFor an added layer of security kit yourself out with a decent firewall. You can download ZoneAlarm for free from www.zonelabs.com

to find your own IP address of your computer go to a DOS prompt and type IPCONFIG. This will show you your IP address. If you are wanting the IP address of your friends internet connection, ask them to do the same. Unless someone tells you their IP address there is no way for you to find out.

The easiest way is to connect through a proxy which will show their IP address and location not yours. Search google or yahoo for free proxy servers and you will find many.

It is very possible for you to locate the person by getting his IP address, but if the said person is using a proxy IP settings, you be led to false location. Anyone can use the IP for California even if you are currently in Italy.

They can log your externally exposed IP address.  This wont be the same address you see if you're behind a network router (linksys) or something.  If you'd like to know your IP they see, go to www.whatismyip.com.  If you leave a message or comment, if they're smart, they'd be able to associate your page hit with that message time and from then on out, thye'd know that IP address was you.  This might be a problem if you're using dsl, as thats a static connection, and your IP would always be the same.  However, with cable, it uses DHCP so your IP should change pretty frequently i blieve.

You can install a network sniffer and watch the network traffic.  If you see unexpected traffic, you can see the IP address it is coming from.

It knows what country you are in from your ip address and redirects you to a local Google.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_Address\n\nYou can use a proxy to hide you ip if you want to access Google.com. E.g. http://www.proxy4free.com/page1.html\nYou would probably need a US proxy for that.

normally the servers store the IP addresses of people too.\nbut in future if researchers in the field of Dynamic Web Prediction (I am one)achieve success then there will be many other methods to track people.\nIt also depends on the purpose of tracking.

Not really. The best way to trace someone is with their IP address. I don't think anyone - outside of Yahoo of course - can get to that information.\n\nAnd even with the IP that doesn't always narrow it down much.

In general, it's hard to track a computer's physical location. You could (for future laptops) write a program to have the laptop occasionally make a web request to your private web server, but that would only get you an IP address. That's not enough to ID the location or person who possesses it.\n\nYou could put your own trojan on it before it's stolen and the trojan would IRC back to you (of course this opens the computer to hacking). You could then track the theif's use, usernames and passwords.\n\nA little better would be a built in GPS receiver. You could have it occasionally e-mail it's location to your email account (say once a day). This way, the next time they connected the computer would tell you where it is.\n\nObviously the best way is to keep good tabs on high theft property.

The Websites determine the location of your country through your IP address. As you may be aware the IP addresses are represented in the following decimal format xxxx.yyyy.aaaa.bbbb. The first eight digits are the pointer to your country and are given by your ISP. There are several sites which offer you this service, netcraft and ip2country are the ones I am using. If you are using Firefox as your browser I would suggest you download ShowIP as an extension to Firefox. With this utility you will automatically come to know the IP address of every website you visit. Use this address in ip2country and you will be pleasantly surprised of the details you will generate. The location of the website being only one.

They hide your Ip adress, any proxy can do this. To dial and use the proxys first get a list of proxy ips. (from for example: http://www.publicproxyservers.com/page1.html)\nThen just hit "tools" "internet options" hit the "connections tab" then click "LAN settings" cheack the "use a proxy" box and enter the IP/Port of the proxy you selected. Or if a URL proxy is enough for you try theese:\nhttp://www.superproxy.be\nhttp://www.proxykey.com\nhttp://www.projectbypass.com \nhttp://www.peacefire.org (via http://www.stupidcensorship.com\nhttp://webproxy.kaxy.com/index.php \nhttp://www.snoopblocker.com \nhttp://www.groundhogdayflowers.com\nhttp://www.PotteryBarnacle.com \nhttp://www.mushroomicecream.com\nhttp://www.proxify.com\nalso try www.perfectproxy.com On the side is a list of more proxys of its type

The netstat command can often reveal the state location of anybody that is sharing a P2P connection with you, for example from a simple Yahoo IM or file transfer. Then again, they could be running through a proxy/port redirector, in which case you'd only be getting the proxy's IP.\n\nApart from that, no detailed information can be extracted, without law breaking activities and extensive knowledge.
