Trace an e-mail address
View the e-mail header...usually by right clicking the e-mail and choosing options. Find the sent from area and there is usually an IP listed. If the message has been sent from Hotmail or Google, there's really no way to trace where the e-mail came from.

and more specifically, you can plug that ip in and run a "tracert" command to find the server it came from, the server names usually can give you a clue as to where they are.
or you can put the IP in a site like this or a program like neotrace, and it will show you visually: http://visualiptrace.visualware.com/

Although I'm not familiar with the name of the software, I've read that there is a tracing program you can run and that will monitor inbound traffic during a conversation and possibly give you an IP address associated with a contact.
If someone knows the name of the software or is familiar with the method I'm referring to or a different method that will give the same result, please post. Brian

it's not likely you will find that kind of information
even when you trace an email using the header information, you can really only trace it back to the server that sent the email you would have to have access to the email server's logs to see the ip of the person who actually sent the email the same holds true with messenger stuff, you are talking to the messenger relay server, that server is being connected to by the user, i can't imagine that server is somehow making the ip of that person available...

Is that IP YOUR actual internet IP that shows up when you go to whatismyip.com?
I suspect it's hotmail's email server's IP, but I only suspect that... im tempted to get a hotmail account just to test this!

retrieving information
L.S.,
"Information is the most valuable commodity I ever heard of. Wouldn't you agree?" (Michael Douglas - Wall Street). What I've noticed is the trace ends at certain servers. Still, I believe -firmly- they're ways to retrieve the information. For one, it takes a level general knowledge and experience. If you notice (like I did) security's your main concern; exploit that fear !!!! For example, I got into how it all worked with those ip-numbers; infinity is unconceivable ?! After a lot of searching (!) I came to the conclusion the internet isn't infinite at all ! Clues; arin, apnic, ripe, iana. I just looked at some apps that -supposedly- can find ip's. I input mine and it came close, but not close enough. Then I searched on a domain I registered and I was suddenly somewhere at the coast of California. Makes no sense; you can virtually do anything in windows what the app does. You just have to know where and how; the app would put a load on your system which makes it harder and slower to connect. I bet if I really wanted to, I could track somebody down;"cmd, nslookup, tracert, pathping" ..... Accessing your ISP' dns-server. Your ip is "reversed and recalculated (hex)"; your ISP turns it into a (sub-) domain-name. If you can find that name and calculate your ip, you'll know what I mean. Suppose you'd be running a file-service; just put "ftp://yuorip" in the address-bar of explorer, iexplore, firefox, run .... and Hoppa! Took me a while to figure it all out and I'm far from done. Now, I've decided to get ms-certified and specify in security. Start with help... Shems

the server for your hosted domain is in california, then... doesn't trace back to you
sounds like you are taking a healthy interest in the subject, but a lot of your concerns can be explained
