People really have no idea just how much information they present every time they send an email, or even just visit a web site.  

I managed to find his address and phone number. ;) (I have done security work for the seattle police before on a contract basis.)

What do ya' rekon, if each of the 10,000 members prank call him once....

Now should I use this information for good or for evil?

I call bullshit, unless there were some really dumb people working the support desk at the ISP, bullshit.

BTW Gary, don't waste your time calling Exodus. I have dealt with them in the past and they are H-U-G-E they are likely to have no time for a complaint such as yours.  Also troll didn't even break any laws.  I had a hell of a time getting ANYTHING out of them when I was tracking down a felon!

Okay call bullshit if you like.  You'll have to pick up all the cards though.  BTW I didn't call Exedous, there are much easier and more direct ways of finding out who you are on the great anonomyous internet.

I have offered his details to Gary through email; as fun as it would be to post it here I don't think that is the best of ideas.

Only much more easier way would be getting into his hard drive via some unsecured server known or unknown trojan server or os file sharing and hoping you can find a file with his personal info in it, but couldn't be the case since the offending ip was non-responding at the time of goatboys post.

Or if he had some domain name or custom 3rd party dns entry pointing to that ip, contacting that company assuming they actually had his name and address (some are anon and free) that would be the only possible way, unless you knew him (i.e. you're trading with someone in the for-sale forums who gave you a name and address and you noticed the x-sender of that mail was the same ip, but thats not exactly the type of skills you'd pick up in "security" work, it'd be more the type of skills you'd pick up in a high-schooll pc class) but I'm doubting it, I'm sticking with bullshit.

Okay, y'all can stick with bullshit.  Funny how you have listed "all" the possible ways to figure someone's info out.  I think you missed a couple.  

Ever done security work yourself?  Didn't think so.

Without gettting too indepth here do you know what an ICMP packet is?  Well it is the bit of info used to keep track of where a packet is going and is what is used to trace an IP.  A server CAN be responding just fine, but also be set up to deny, or ignore ICMP packets.  

Try pinging www.microsoft.com and you'll see what I mean.  One reply and then it times out.  Oddly enough their web site is still up though.  Hmmmmmm......

For the record I am not in any part of Law Enforcement.  I was contracted by a seattle poliece dept to help find internet stalkers a while back.
