Every computer on the internet automatically gets an IP-address (probably from your provider). Based on this IP-address websites can locate any computer that connects to them (down to a broad region).\n\nYou can not change this IP address or location information on your computer.\n\nYou can bypass this check by routing your web visits through another computer in the USA. Some websites  can do this for you. You should search for 'anonymizer' in google.\n\nThis page has a collection of them: (take one from USA off course): http://www.proxys4all.com/web-based.shtml

It's very simple prog to grab an IP address. But having someones IP addy don't really mean diddly anyway as the most they can do with it is find the city name and Host Server with it anyway.\nThe person using it can not be traced by a normal user and the ISP would never give out that information to anyone with the rare exception the cops want it for criminal activity.

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

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

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.

Yes, the websites you visit can obtain your IP address, for example go here:\nhttp://www.ipchecker.net/\nto find ot what your IP address is. When in chat you're usually safe unless you establish p2p connection with the other person (usually when you transfer a file)

Well, there are softwares you can buy to hide your true IP address. Do some search and compare the products that're right for you.

I've been hacked before. To prevent such events, have a Anti-Virus program, Windows Defender (if you're using Windows), a Firewall and update your system regularly.\n\nI think there are some programs that would offer an option to hide your IP address.\n\nAnd to avoid being hacked for password, try not to save any important password in your computer. For example, you might have a dail-up connection set up and you've saved your password on the dailer. Hackers could easily find a software to reveal what is saved. Even if it is hexed when you see it on your screen.\n\nCheck the included link. I think that would help.\nGood luck.

There is no point in banning IP Addresses. Most people have dynamic IPs today anyway. And the people who dont... they can use ARP poisoning to fake their IP Address. Also if an ISP recycles IP Addresses quickly you could be banning someone you dont want banned and, in the long run, losing hits on your site.\n\nEdit: But, what you can do... Have your site reconize cookies and send the person you dont want coming to your site a cookie, so when they go to the site the site will reconize the cookie and block him. But, of course, cookies can be deleted.

If you are running Windows XP, click Start, Run..., and type in cmd in the dialog box that appears.  This will open a DOS session.  Type ipconfig at the command prompt that appears on the screen and press <Enter> key.  You will get a few lines of results, one of them being your IP addr.\n\nNow, if you have a router between you and and your cable or DSL connection, then the IP address you see is what the router is assigning to your computer.  The outside world cannot see that address - they see the address your service provider has assigned to your router.
