Unfortunately, users using Yahoo Messenger connect to a central server, thus one user can not see the IP address of another. You can see their IP address, however, if you enable a direct connection with them (i.e. send/receive a file). |

You can set up a fake webpage on a webserver somewhere, give them the link to it, then check your referrer logs for the ip. |

Get a program like Tiny Firewall (available at download.com). This program uses mirror firewalls to display the person's IP. Sometimes you can get a person's IP when they message you. It seems to work best if the Yahoo messenger and the firewall program have just been started. If you send them a file, you can quickly get their IP. If you use Tiny Firewall, disable the firewall, or else you will have problems with YM and other programs. |

If you've managed to obtain the person's ip address there is a product out there that produces a map image of where there isp is located, which is usually around the area of where they are, unless they are routing through different ips, which is stupid if you're just gonna bug people on yahoo. as the other comments say on here on how to obtain the ip address, this is how you track it. with NeoTrace. it's not a cheap program, but if your that willing to track down your assailant, then this is how you do it. I do not condone violence for this situation, nor do i condone piracy for the acquiring of NeoTrace. |
