Hi hwh888,

Here are some excellent sources for tracing IP addresses:


ARIN WHOIS

"ARIN's WHOIS service provides a mechanism for finding contact and
registration information for resources registered with ARIN. ARIN's
database contains IP addresses, autonomous system (AS) numbers,
organizations or customers that are associated with these resources,
and related Points of Contact (POCs)."

HotWhois

"HotWhois is an easy-to-use IP Lookup application for sending queries
on IP addresses and domain names to whois servers and examining the
results. You can retrieve IP Whois information about the organization
or the internet service provider (ISP) that owns the IP address,
including information about the country, state, city, address, contact
phone numbers and e-mail addresses. Unlike many other IP Tracking
programs that send IP Whois queries only to the ARIN Whois Database,
HotWhois also send queries to another Regional Internet Registries
(RIRs): RIPE NCC (responsible for Europe, northern Africa, and parts
of Asia), APNIC (Asia Pacific Internet Community) and LACNIC (Latin
American and Caribbean region)."
