Only if you have a way of logging such things.

Angle a) Man got a notepad file a month ago, then something was said or done on AIM which turned out a last straw. Now he wants help finding out where this bastard lives.

Angle b) Man sent a notepad file to someone a month ago, then said or did something on AIM which caused the person at the other end to say he or she would find out where man lives using their l33t IP techniques and lay the smackdown.

Which is it?

I can't understand what you're saying here.

Anyway, if they open a document with html, I'm pretty sure there is a way to make it ping some type of server or something, giving the IP address.
Do you really want chat rooms?

there are forensic tools out there that allow you to do all of this I'm still new to all this since I just started my major in computer forensics... but next year we'll be cracking into the new sync computers on fords... and extracting gps information... and whatnot


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....

That's a cool major, the reason I want to know this is strictly to stalk some girl. But good luck on your major!


fixed :p

Generally, if you want to grab an IP address, the idea is to analyse the traffic between you and the other element (can be a person, a website or whatever thing that is connected to Internet with an IP address).

In order to do that, you can use some softwares like ethereal (which is a network sniffer). Thoses types of software can store all the traffic that goes by your hardware network.

The difficult part if you're not really into that is to analyze those traffic logs in order to figure out the IP you're looking for.

Oh, I don't particularly care who's IP it is, just wanted to see if it was possible and no, not stalking some girl. -_-

I have used ethereal before, my programming prof. told us to use it for networks where you don't want a particular someone to use your net.
