Is it possible to identify the IP address and thereby the location of person chatting in yahoo messenger?

May be possible in some cases. I'm using GAIM instead of Yahoo Messenger and in an IM window i have an "Info" button. Pressing it, in 80% of the cases, it shows the IP address of the person i'm talking to.

Many Hackers & Loggers Use Chat Systems to getinto others computers...\n\nHence a complete track is must...which is only possible when we record the IP Addresses...\n\nRecording IP Addresses doesnt mean they see our chat sessions.. \nIts only your computers identity connected to the internet world...with which they are concerned about....

There are databases that can be checked against to see where the IP address originates from.\n\nThey simply perform a check using the visiting IP address against these databases to get the location.

first the email extension doesn't matter\nit just means where the service provider belong to but not where she is from\nif u chat using messenger (Yahoo! , MSN, and maybe others)\n\nopen Start-->Run---> type "cmd" without " \nand type "netstat -n"\n\nthen just after u close the chat\nrun the command again\nand find out the ip that wasn't in the second list but was on first\nthat would be her ip\nsearch for it to know where does it belong (don't remember ip lookup but I'll search later)\n\nyeah it's hard\n\nlet me tell u something easier\n\njust Trust her and live with it

go on your messenger and choose contacts, choose the message archive option just below the profile option and if u have it enabled it will tell you when it was logged on and who was talking, but if it's not enabled then you can't find that info out.

Do you mean geographical location? \nFirst you have to know the ip address of the person you chat with . it depends on what application you use to chat. \nThen use some tool like IP to Country Convertor. You can get it on http://www.softpedia.com/get/Network-Tools/IP-Tools/Ip-to-Country-Convertor.shtml\nYou can find many freeware to do this purpose on the internet. Just googling!\nGood luck!

ok, all you do is go onto command prompt and type in "ping xxx.xxx.xxx", wer xxx.xxx.xxx is watever your friend's ip address is. Then, it will come up with a whole bunch of info and stuff.\n\nalso, if you type in "ping/exe", it gives you a key to some of the acronymes

Even if you could get their IP address.  I wouldn't mean you would know where they are physically located.  There are lots of ways of masking your IP or spoofing what IP is given.  You could try asking a person where they are in chat but then again they could lie about it.

It is possible using geo loacation softwares which are available in the market ...if yahoo server (Y mail)uses that ...then all yahoo email users can see the geo location of emails received!\n\nEven client based geo location softwares are available  like email tracker pro(for example) with which anyone find the email sender's exact location !\n\nemail tracker pro :\nftp://ftp.visualware.com/pub/emt/emt.exe\n\ntry using 30gigs.com ...this is an free email service provider  ...who gives geolocation of sender for all user mails !\n\nBut u need invitation for 30gigs.com like gmail service!!

Using netstat won't give you the IP of the person you're chatting with; the only thing you'll get is the IP of the server which handles the chat messages.  \n\nI think if you establish a direct connection with someone (to share pictures or files), you MIGHT be able to find their IP through netstat.  I don't know how Yahoo handles the transfers, so they could likely  be proxied, in which case you get the IP of the proxy server instead of that person's IP.

Try TCPView http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/TcpView.html this shows all the IP addresses connected to your PC. However, it may only reach the chat provider. On my PC is shows different IP addresses for every conversation window, however, not the IP address of the person I am chatting to.\n\nI doubt whether you could locate automatically without directly asking for the persons IP address.

So you cannot see the specific IP address of the sender, but you can trace back to their email gateway.\n\nThese instructions will vary depending on the email client you have, however, it should be possible to view the internet header. For example on Outlook, you can do this within the message by, selecting view, then options.\n\nAnyway parse through the header and you will see the IP address of the various servers the message has passed through.
