Malinda,

Hi all,

I just want to know whether there any tool for tarce the ip address of a person while chatting.

Chatting how? Using which client (AIM, Gaim, Trillian, Yahoo) on which platform?

Chat programs like AIM and Yahoo go through a centralized server, so tracing the IP address via the netstat output is going to lead you back to the AOL or Yahoo servers, respectively. Generally, those running an investigation will attempt to perform a direct connection, for file downloads, video chat via a web cam, etc., and get the IP address that way.

If there is more information available on what you're trying to do, the providing it would be extremely useful.

Thanks,

H

"Got free"?? What does that mean?

Also, what chat client were you using? Yahoo?
