ROTFLOL!!! I swear I'm not "stalking" you, Mona, lol! This was just the next stop on my GW daily tour. Recently bought a Mac and I've been following a couple threads.

Carry on...

Choose "Page Source" under View on your Firefox browser or "Source" under View on IE and you will be able to find IP address of the posts. You will have to look very carefully to find them, as there is a lot of "stuff" on the page.

Facebook mapped me to my front street on the wrong side. They should not know my address or real name or phone. I figured out how to delete my account there. They don't make it easy to find how to delete your account from their computers. Microsoft win8 has maps, they actually know my real name and address. I drug and moved my location marker on the win8 map out to one of the islands on the drive to the Sunshine Skyway bridge. Somebody was to drive to my location with that map, they might think I live in a highway rest station, surrounded with a great view :)

one big way is to stay completely away from any of the data mining sites like facebook, myspace, twitter, all social networking, etc, they are the pretty mask of the ugly truth, all they want is your info and they want it really bad, they make billions of dollars because people freely just dole out their info and all their friends info to them with a big smile on their face. Then wonder why they end up with spam, viruses, trojans and rootkits plus why their identity seems to be stolen, hummmm... 1+1= I was just recently asked(by a large company) about how those social engineering sites could aid employers to find out info on potential employees which they would not of course be providing on their applications. Within a few minutes of having the names of 3 people I was able to provide them with a wealth of info all of which was very negative in respects to hiring, so if people think they can just put anything out there and it NOT come back to bite them, very very wrong. And as it is public information it is free information.

I am assuming you mean on your wireless network? have you set up the proper security on your wireless network? If you have it set up right you should be invisible. And very very important have you gone into your router settings and set a very hard non-sense password on the router? if not do that immediately, then write it on a piece of paper and tape it to the bottom of your router so you do not forget it, you can also set a user name. make the password long, make it out of numbers and letters and make sure there are no actual words in it. this might be helpful How to secure your home wireless network

Squirrel just posted that his/her IP was from New Orleans. I asked if that meant "ilovemyuglysofa" could be the real deal. Then I started wondering where dillydally is from. Is it New Orleans?

Dilly Dally IS from New Orleans. She said so in the CL thread where she was lambasting me. Hmmm, very interesting.

Notice she's disappeared from that thread once people were to divert suspicion....that's low!!!

I'm going back to learn more. See you there.

Monablair, scroll down until you find the post you want to check, or do a search for the poster's ID. After you find the ID look until you find numbers. Your IP shows as 72.207.235.132 .

of course IP addys can be proxies or redirected or spoofed so not always a definitive for any thing, keep that in mind.
