FYI... IP addresses change all of the time. ISPs no longer honor static IP addresses to the general pop. The only thing that is truly static is your MAC address. Today your IP address could be one number, and tomorrow, it could be something totally different. Just FYI

I know what the IP address for my personal computer is. There seems to have been a hotmail account created in my name. Can I find out what computer it was created on? I want to know if it is connected to my personal computer.

No. Please read the article you just commented on.

I just found out that my husband was cheating. How can I find out if he has e-mail addresses that I don't know about (example, Hotmail, AOL, Yahoo, etc.)? For some reason I think this person and him are still in contact, but I need to prove it first. I really hope that you can help me. I just need to find somehow that I can search by whatever means to see if there's any e-mail addresses out these established with the same info.

Your question boils down to how do I find out someone's email address? The short answer is that you don't. If a person doesn't want their email address to be found, it's nearly impossible to determine if they have one, or what it might be.

IMO, your only real hope is if your husband is using a computer you have access to, in which case you could take it to someone who's good at computer forensics to see if he's left traces on it. Naturally this'd probably cost money.

As I've said over and over and over again, unless you are the police with a court order an IP address will NOT tell you the physical location of a computer.
-Leo

There's actually a way to find the location of a computer based on Ip address, for free, without being an authority or acquiring a court order, getting at least where the computer is connecting to (which ISP and where in the world it is) by going to http://www.ip2location.com/free.asp and putting the IP address that you got from the email header (which should be viewed in full details).

Which ISP will get you maybe as close the city, and often only as close as the country. It will not tell you exactly where the computer is. You will not get an address, you will not get a name and you will not get a phone number.

Specifically, ip2location above is 15 miles wrong for my IP address. In a populated area that narrows my location down to one of a few hundred thousand households.

Hi, i belive that this info is wrong, you can find out the ip, the ip can tell you the location of the computer. and if it is from a library you could check the time you got the mail and hope that the library can tell you who sat at the computer at that time. in some librarys (in swe) you have to tell those who work there your name before you sit down at a computer.

As I've said over and over and over again, unless you are the police with a court order an IP address will NOT tell you the physical location of a computer.

hi, i am the member of a family site, to which we all have our own individual pages. recently i got a pendin friends request and a name i recognised i therefore accepted only to find that the profile was completely made up but contained a few pics of a real friend of mine. the parson who created the fake profile had incorrect and nasty information on there about my friend and had altered the pics of her, they had also joined her to a group of transvestites that dont exist. this is an arguement that has spilled over from another site in which i have contact with my friend. hope this is makin sense so far, anyway, as this is a family site and the pics and information were inappropriate i blocked and deleted the profile. reported it to the site in question and also informed my friend what had happened. i have the email address that was used to create the fake profile but cant seem to get anywhere when tryin to find out who this person or persons really are.
can u help.
would appreiciate an email back.

Hello Leo!!
I read your article, it seem impossible to find someone by his email adress. But I really want to find back his information what could I do?? His email is now desactivate for 3 years now, I was not able to respond to her and her adress is inactive now..

All I have is her first name, her email adress, and some basic information like her puppet name and her badminton racket name and the name of the shop she was working but I dunno where because there are a lot other store like the one she was working..

So, if I was able to find his informations with his email and have his last name it would be wonderful.. and I have all the emails which we correspond..
I would give you a lot of beer lol..

Thanks anyway..
Sam

I met a guy a few years back on holiday and would like to get back in touch. All i know is his first name, and the main part of his email address. Problem is, I think there were some numbers after the main name in the address - is there anyway of looking at a list to see if anything crops up??

Hi LEO i got this problem that might seem pretty wired. I'm from poland and this girl from chicago visited my town we meet and had a great time. I had her email written in my cell phone but it got stolen. I sort of remebered it so i wrote an email to her but it said that it doesn't exist. And my problem is that i might've got it wrong. So is there a way to check any possible combinations af the email becouse i know for sure that most of it i remebered right but it contains numers at the end and i might've got thouse wrong. Can You help me ?!

I have been receiving harrassing emails from a hotmail account. I have emailed abuse@hotmail.com as to notify them about it. However I want to do some investigating on my own part. The problem is that I copied the emails through outlook from one account to another for safe keeping. They emailed my work address and I wanted to remove the malicious emails from my work computer so I transferred the info to my hotmail account by a simple click and drag. Is there a way to get the original header information back? Thanks

There are a few websites with which you can look up an IP address and find out about its owner, location, and ISP (Internet Service Provider).

I recommend iptwister.stormloader.com [ http://iptwister.stormloader.com ].

You can use it to submit information about IP addresses that you find in an advanced email header, as well as look up information relating to an IP address.

It's very simple and easy to use. Good luck!

Certainly. Sometimes all computers for a single corporation "appear" as a single IP address on the internet. More commonly homes with multiple computers that use a router all appear as the same IP address. (I have seven or eight machines here - yet they all appear as a single IP on the internet).

So it really depends on the specifics of the IP and how your friend connects to the internet. But it's possible.

i have a hotmail account and regularly correspond with another hotmail user.

a week back i received an offensive email from an unknown person having a hotmail account.

when i traced the IP using the advanced header option in hotmail, i found that my contact and this person had the same X-IP sender's address.

i am shocked and wondering if the same ip address can be shared by two different people

please advise

Watch out, trying to access peoples email addresses via searching the real name, it does not work, its impossible.

Also doing that makes your browser catch open to viruses, such as malware...

I know of no way to find a person on Hotmail with only their name.

Remember, they may simply not use there name in their hotmail registration, or there could be 100's of people with the same name, or they may not have a Hotmail account at all.

Best you just ask your friend.

You guys are all lamers! holy CRAP, think for yourselves u MORONS, read, research, learn and stop asking such ~stupid~ questions. - "can you find my friend" - "this person is bothering me".- "how do i change this" - Almost every single question asked here can either be found ON this website, ON the hotmail site, OR with commen sence (not so commen i guess). If i was admin id have your IP's banned for asking such crap. Thats my 2 cents.

Nope. If they're not in the directory, finding someone is extremely difficult if not impossible.
