How do you track someones ip address?

Answer 1

You can do a reverse IP search which will tell you where an IP address is located. This may give you a city but won't give you a street address.

You can go to the IP tracing websites such as ip2location.com online demo to trace the Country, Region, City, Latitude, Longitude, ZIPCode, Timezone, ISP, Domain, Netspeed, Areacode and Weather of your IP address. Here is the example of the geolocation traced info for the Google's IP address: http://www.ip2location.com/64.233.167.104

Answer 2

There are several online tools you can use to trace IP addresses. The most comprehensive one is on TraceMyIP.org. Just input the proper IP address into the box.

The IP Lookup tool of DNSStuff.com is very easy to use and it is free. Another free IP Lookup tool you can use is IPWhois.com.

There are certain websites through which you can trace a location/ISP of an IP. Just google 'Trace IP' and you will find many websites. Go there and put the IP of the person whom you want to trace and it will find the location.

A more complex way that hackers use to find IP addresses is the CMD, better known as the Command Prompt. Typing in 'tracert' and then the website you want the IP address of will bring up the IP addresses not only of the site but also of all it's users (maximum of 30 people).

Hackers sometimes use this method to do a remote shutdown on a computer, a remote file deletion on a computer, or to transmit a virus. Very effective, and highly illegal. Use this info at your own discretion.

Answer 3

Traffic betwen a computer and a server is guided by IP-addresses. The only people that could see an IP address has visited a site would be the site admin(s). Most site maintenance software has functions to track an IP-address. There are also several other stand-alone programs like traceroute and stuff. Note: Official public IP-address trace software is capable in tracing back to what country it comes from, sometimes what region, but not, as shown in some movies, to the exact address!

Answer 4

There are many ways to find out someone's IP address. The easiest way is using special web service like www.iplogger.org.

Iplogger.org offers several options:

- generate invisible iplogger image which you can use to find out someone's ip

- generate iplogger-URL

- generate ip-informer html or BB-code for using on your web site, bb or forum.

You can select what is the most appropriate for your case. It is free.

Answer 5

The simple answer is yes but there are limitations.

One simple limitation could be the length of time logs are kept

In short all IP addresses must be mapped to a hardware address and hardware addresses are unique.

Again, that's the simple answer.
