MemberI know its none of my busniess, but why are you requesting this information? I dont know anything that requires you to have someone’s IP address unless[/b] your hacking them, or trying to boot them. And if thats the case, DONT!!

Second… there are a multitude of legitimate reasons for wanting another users IP address. For example, some webcam apps require them. Include here your own post https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2831
C’mon twisted get on the plan here.March 16, 2003 at 1:40 pm #97692feel_the_rythem
Memberthanx 4 replying my message.
to twistedmetal—i want to know this for educational purpose only because i became the victime of this.to rustedtight–you will not get the ip of user by using netstat command.by this command u will only get the ip of yahoo server.
the working of yahoo messanger.
user
yahoo server
user.there is a indirect connection.
the ip of user is not revealed to other user unless there is a direst connection.March 16, 2003 at 4:23 pm #97679Jeff Hester
KeymasterThe easiest way to find their IP address is to ask them for it. Apart from that, you can find it using netstat while running any P2P connections, including Super WebCam mode, file transfer and voice chat.

MemberMy problem is a tad different.. I have a person who is following me.. I recently noticed about 2 weeks ago that everytime I would log into yahoo messenger and log into yahoo games this “certain person ” would join my table.. At first he used the same “numbers ” after his id this is how I knew it was him , then he found out thats how I knew it was him so when I started avoiding him he changed his method, he would come to my game under a new id and say the same thing to me.. “Do you have a stalker?” Is one phrase he likes to use on me alot! .. When I was under a different id and refused to talk to him or give him any information whats so ever he stepped up his harrassment.. He started making ids that were similar to mine with one letter missing..
I have done everything in my power to get rid of this guy.. 1. I deleted every account I have had with yahoo and started over completely … 2. I contacted my isp and got a new ip address ( mind you I have 3 firewalls on my computer) he still found me.. I took screen shots of the things he was saying and sent them to yahoo.. ( you can guess where that got me or I wouldnt be pleading with you right now for help) .. One time he used My last name which is not a common name on one of his ids I sent it to yahoo under abuse and harrassment and notified them of what was going on .. This in return only resulted in them giving me a computer generated response of “put him on ignore and they will look into it” Dont think the “ignore” thing hasnt been done .. but its a little hard to keep up with when everyday he makes up more and more new ids to harrass me under…
I am a married woman and mother of two Ok? I do not do anything on the computer that I am not suppost to be doing .. My kids even use my computer which of course has me even more worried because I am not only afraid to use it or log in and go anywhere I am afraid of them getting on here…
I put every kind of anti-spyware download on here .. And it all boils down to one thing .. We dont know how he is doing it.. But everyday I log into my computer log into my messenger go to a room( backgammon on yahoo) and in 3 minutes he shows up and is sitting at the table I am at .. he is even finding me when I make a new id.. I deleted everything I had on yahoo and made a new account that Had nothing to do with my other accounts and this guy still found me..
When I ignore him, his harrassment gets worse I got tired of going to backgammon and only playing him so I went to pyramids which is a single playing person game.. And you can watch the “lobby ” and converse with other players.. He got upset that he couldnt join my table so he went to the lobby and started saying something about me that he knew I would know he was there..
I do not want to hack this person , I couldnt do it if I tried .. the only thing I want is peace of mind and my privacy back.. I want to get rid of him and be able to play and have fun and enjoy surfing like I used to without being “watched” or without being followed..
I wanted to prove it wasnt just yahoo he was annoying me on so I did something I never do .. I logged into my msn messenger and went to a chatroom.. 3 minutes like clockwork he was in the same room.. following me.. I am tired of running from this guy and I dont feel he has the right to make me leave the net but I am running out of options here and this really isnt fair.. at least I dont think it is.
Yes I know this may sound a little nutty or worse like a paranoid person, my husband was a little skeptical at first too until I showed him that the person made an id with my last name in it and just for the record my last name is NOT COMMON…
Is there a way I can get rid of this guy? Is there a way I can get away from him without actually having to leave the net??
If anyone has any information that would help me plz plz all suggestions are welcome.. well except hacking ones I DO not want to hack or TRACE or follow or harrass or do anything to him that he has done to me I JUST WANT peace of mind again..

MemberCarrie
You show to be in the USA, have you talked to the authorities? Some of the
things done to you could be a crime. There are special crime bureaus in most major
departments that may be able to help you.March 18, 2003 at 7:08 pm #97678Jeff Hester
KeymasterCarrie, at the very least you should also report him (and all the various identities he assumes) to abuse@yahoo.com since it appears that he’s finding you in the Yahoo! Games area mainly.
My experience has been that Yahoo, MSN and AOL take these kinds of reports very seriously, and can very likely help.
