OH yes it would be Mr Hebrew.
You have an IP. Yay, you can likely tell who the ISP is. Now most ISP users these days are issued DHCP address that change with each connection and do not contain a user-specified hostname, usuall just a modem number on a portmaster. Also, most users arent via UNIX accounts anymore so you cant do a finger on thier accoutn. Also since you have just thier IP, you can indeed TRY and get her name from them, but TRY is as far as you'll get beacuse ISPs do NOT release any of that type of information withought a cort order which you'll have to go to the police for, and to get them to help you there has to be suspicion of some type of crime... and well... you get the idea. So stop trying to scare Claire. And Claire, it is always verry 'not smart' to post your real name, first, last or whatever anywhere on the net. This being said. How about we move on eh? Pete, feel free to lock this thread as it appears no one is able to answer the point of this thread anyways which was my question.
