Is there a danger disclosing your IP Address?
369393
You cannot disclose your IP address as this address is shared by all the Internet users who are registered with your ISP! overloading is used to distinguish different users, for ex. if you share my same IP, let's say 227.12.12.1, then mine could be 227.12.12.1:65041, and yours 227.12.12.1:65045, the number to the right of the IP is the overload number and it changes every time... so if a hacker needs to hack a PC, he has to get through the ISP first, then attempt a random attempt on an overloaded IP...

you may ask your service provider for this err... service. or you may download, for a fee, IP masking software, like HideIP.

It is not a site, it is the IP address of your router.

I agree it's more likely you're referring to IP addr, e.g., 234.56.78.90 where each of the 4 sets of ### is an octet of bits betwee 0 and 255 (2^8 = 256...don't forget you're counting from 0)\n\nIn that case you have a dedicated IP addr like with cable modem DSL\n\nTo not have a dedicated IP addr puts you in the category as people to have dialup and, each time you log on, you're assigned whatever IP addrs are available at that point in time...\n\nYou have that IP addr for as long as you're logged on until you terminate the session\n\nIf I had a dedicated IP addr, I'd be concerned about being hacked, because there's more time for a hacker to figure things out about your acct\n\nI agree that you can't hide your ISP unless you're in charge of a web server and an IP addr on the web with a subscription to the IEEE for .com, .edu, .org, .net etc\n\nIf you want an anonymous e-Mail acct, you might want to try www.mail.com...\n\nYou can join as userID@accountant.com, userID@australia.com, userID@smiling.com\n\nTo make it more anonymous, register as someone other than yourself...\n\nYou might want to be careful as to the fictitious name...\n\nIt's likely a company might accuse you of fraud...\n\nIt's only fraud if you're intentionally trying to misrepresent yourself as that company\n\nAgain you can't hide RoadRunner, EarthLink, NetScape, Juno, whatever

No way.. the moment you log into any website, it's server logs your IP.. you can always be traced.. even if you just connect to the net

according to your IP address,you are not telling the truth. But here... have some *ATTENTION* anyways. *rolls eyes*

Yes, there is. Install an application like nagios (freeware) or Look@Lan (freeware). Have that monitor the IP address of your router.\nBut it's usually not easy to understand all traffic that is going on in your network.

Yeah. I used to be a hacker. They get your IP, then they connect to your computer using programs like netbus, subseven, CMD. Then they can look at your computer screen by installing a certain program (don't want to let other people know about this). Before they do this, they scan to see if you have any open ports, if you have a firewall, you'll be safe.\n\nEDIT: If He's really scaring you, disconnect your router from the PC and call the internet company for a new IP. Chances are, he's obtained ALL of your passwords and personal info. You might want to contact the proper authorites for this situation. This is a  serious issue.

Your IP address won't be exposed (unless your mail server is there at home), though the IP address of your mail server will be.

If you use Yahoo Messenger and use your ID in the chat rooms only, there is NO WAY anybody can detect your IP address as Yahoo has been very careful about this.  However, the people on your buddy list can sometimes detect your IP address when you and that person instant message each other by using the 'netstat' command.  Some firewall software and Y!Tunnel Pro may prevent your IP from being detected this way.  \n\nFor your peace of mind, even if someone know what your IP address is, they can only find out who your service provider is, and NOT your home address per se.  That's probably all that they can do with your IP address.

I already told you.  Use my IP Address.

Yes you can, there is usually an option that looks like "Exclude hits from xxx" where you fill in the xxx with your own IP address.\nWithout giving us the exact hit counter you are using, it is pretty much imopssible to explain exactly how to do it though.

Certainly not. And your IP address they can see without attachment.

Don't worry in that regard. If so the IP of the ISP only will be tracked.

Yes. You can block by setup a firewall to block the ip or mac address to access.\n\n\nd10v01b

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!
