I think I get what you mean but I mean can you get the other person's IP from the conversation alone, I mean, does AIM(AOL?) store AIM conversations or after you end session, it's cleaned off their servers forever unless you have an AIM that can basically store conversations? For a direct connection, is this the only way? | ||

but back to the topic... there are more ways to get someones ip.... than just directly linking to them... search for some tools there are a lot of free useful ones on the internet..... and once you have their ip you can intercept packets and with a little bit of knowledge.. all of which is out there on the internet you can use this information to find out where they are going and all their activities... overall... I'm excited... learning to extract information from blackberrys and computers... ~~ its just crazy... my professor is regarded as one of the bests in the nation.. and I really didn't answer any of your questions YES to aim No to notebook.... | ||
