What is IP address ?

IP ADDRESS STANDS for internet protocol address.
your ip address is d unique address on vch data r sent 2 you. ur internet service provider make hiMself sure dt datas r going 2 u bcoz he is sending data on d address specialy assigned 2 you.

Getting ur own ip address

netstat -n
nd hit enter
a list vl appear..look at local address .d first local address is ur ip address. d second method 2 get ur ip address is open
whatismyip.com
on dis site u may easily know ur ip address.
writing netstat is more good dis command tells about all ip address vch r connected 2 u dis moment.
memorize dis small list

TRACING IP ADDRESS :

i know many of u know dis thing,tracing some1 but i vl tell u here many new nd exiting ways.
let's start.
first of all,vat is d need we have 2 trace any1?
see,suppose dt u vant 2 hack anywebsite or 2 any person then d most imp. thing is 2 get his ip address.
untill d moment u vl nt be knowing his id address how can u do anything?
here i vl teach u only tracing ip address. attacks vl come in future.
let's start ,be prepared 4 knowing many new ways 2 trace any1.
click on start>run>type cmd>hit enter

d line vch i hv written in blue clr vl be d first line automatically came nd in dt first line u may see d ip address of d website.now in second line u vl see written.
over a maximum hops of 30

Explanation of hopes nd dis thing :

See,wenever u open any website u just send some data 2 dt website 4 vch dt website replies u nd den u send some data gain nd dis process continues ,nw suppose dt after of writing tracert google.com ,ur data packets reached 2 google.com ,now google vl try 2 reply u,bcoz google is a very big website ,it take help of many servers ,replies 4m google vl come 4m dese servers .
now look at ur command prompt.der u can see written tracing vd a maximum of 30 hopes.here u r getting ip address of d servers 4m vch datas r processing 2 u .
here u vl see * dis sign in some places,here they have fixed firewall,so dt u cann't attack easily.
written * means der is a firewall,bcoz tracing any1 is very easy,der4 de webmaster fix some firewalls so dt no1 ud be able 2 attack on dem properly.
i think u ppl r geting me.

A GENERAL MISCONCEPTION

I KNOW DIS THING IS NT RELATED 2 IP ADDRESS bt it is very much essential 2 tell here ,see most of u think on internet we cann't get highly sensitive information..dis is nt true.on internet many person has posted rapidshare accounts vch u need very much bt d problem is u donno where it is?d same thing is vch other things also.on internet many ppl has written many highly secret things about a website bt we donno dt .
here all u have 2 make urself clear that on internet u can get highly informative topics also.oki?


Let's moov 2 our original place.
see,
nslookup command wen u applied ,
u may see written der .u r nt authentized 2 dis route.
is der something wrtten like it?
i know der is.now u can think d importaince of dis command.
now 4 getting ip address nd 4 getting many sensitive information about a website u may also use these websites.
open
samspade.com
nd open
dnsstuff.com
nd open
whois.net
on these websites just enter d name of any website nd dis website vl give u each nd every inforamtion about dt website.u may also write down here any ip address nddese sites vl tell u each nd every thing about dt website.
it is really very cool....plz open al d websites nd try 2 get d inforamtion of orkut.com nd google.com nd ur college's website.u may easily know ur college is taking who's help 2 give u internet .
u may also know wen a website has been made nd each nd everything about dt website.
try on orkut nd google nd ur clg website now.


Gathering information is d first job of a hacker.untill d moment u vl nt be aware about each nd everyting about a website or about a ip address u cann't do anything...der is a name of gathering information thing and dt isreconnaisance
i think on a website now u ppl easily can do reconnaisance.
it all was about tracing a website nd 4 gathering inforamtion about a website .
now jump 2 learn how 2 trace a person.
mind it till now u did trace onlu a website.
tracing a person is also easy.no.no..it is very easy.
