Ive heard theres a way to do it, but i havnt been able to find anything so far. I have the ip address and what im trying to do is find the persons name/AIM screen name/something else, just some form of identification through their ip address is it possible to get any of that kind of information this way?
Yes it is, have a look at this thread, pay particular attention to DrChips' answer to a so called "hacker" (about half way down). Quite interesting to say the least...... http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/65851 Take a look here too.... http://www.network-monitor.com/network-traffic.asp
this is some really interesting stuff. well to me anyway. id like to learn more about all these packet sniffers, watcher, trackers, and whatnot. I downloaded the network monitor (havnt ran it yet) but im not sure of alot of the stuff it was talking about on the page you linked to. Would you happen to know of a good guide where i could read up on this stuff?
