Title: Finding an IP address
Post by: Golfer on January 10, 2007, 05:51:00 PM

I'm looking to see if there are legal methods to go about finding out who a particular IP address belongs to at least giving me a radius of where it could be.  I'd prefer to be able to "show my work" legally rather than circumvent a law or privacy policy and find myself in trouble.

I don't need to know the last time they went to the bathroom but I would like to find within a reasonable distance where something came from.

I wish I could be more specific so if any of the tech types out there could help me with this I'd be very much appreciative.

At very least what about websites like people-search.com and the like?

I'm not looking to see someone "pay" as it were.  I just want to be able to prove that something wasn't done by me.  Admissible in court isn't the goal...just to have something that says "computer A is my computer and computer B accessed/did this at this time."  I'd like to find something that would at least put a date/time on something that I can show I most certainly was not able to do that.

Thanks.
