Yes they can, and it's very easy. In fact I was able to tell what IP address you posted your question from, and from there, what school you're attending. • IP addresses are a fundamental part internet communication, and there's no way to remove that information. When two computers talk on the internet, they know each other's IP addresses. That's the way it works. One way to surf anonymously is to use an service that routes your requests through its servers. http://www.anonymizer.com/ is one example, though there are others that will do the job. Your IP is still known to the service, but the web site you then visit using the service doesn't see it. • Recent Comments

I use aol, i am not allowed to use certain bookmakers sites, i have been looking at ip masking software but ive been told that as i have a dynamic ip, they cannot identify me this way as it is constantly changing and my ISP will never disclose any info about me, i also delete cookies regularly and im pretty sure they cant get my MAC address.
