IP address of Yahoo chat users

[sushantasarkar]

Is there any way to find the ip address of the chat user with whom i m chatting using yahoo messanger?

 

[nithinks]

In yahoo there are some privacy issues according to which you cant access
ip address of any user who are chatting with u........

I think you can use PING tool to find ip address of any host.format will be something like...

ping www.hostname.com

Hehe.. That aint gonna work dudes! And you cannot get the IP of yahoo chat users. Though you can get the IP's of yahoo messenger buddies!

no pinging theyare used to check ur connection with a server only

Best would be to start a server or something and trick them into viewing it, you might get the proxied IP then

sygatefirewall gives the address of the chat user with whom u r chatting .

sygate most probably gives the ip of the ym chat server. The chat conversation goest through the server. However I read somewhere that when we transfer files a client to client connection is established. Not sure though. But if that is the case, netstat should give the ip.

And oh Kalpik. I said i am not sure. So no lols and rofls, OK. ::

 

[gary4gar]

for seeing thier ip address u need to send them a file of at least 1mb so u get direct connection with the person & not with server.now to cammand prompt and type

netstat -n

from there u can get all ip connected to ur computer.try to close are connection and open only the sending file connection.for furthere queries reply back
