Could you elaborate on what you mean by 'ip sniffer'? Are you talking about an IP-displayer for some instant-messenging stuff? I can't help you on the 'for mac' stuff, but to be blunt, a great many people here have been asking for MSN/Yahoo IP finder programs, which, plainly, don't exist in the way most people think about it. (As in a super-simple input-screen-name output-ip-adress system.)

IP sniffer... for what? You mean a packet-capture utility?

Terr is right..ther is no miracle program..not yet anyways :) are you looking for an IP monitor..such as Netstat for windows? you can always search the internet for "Ip connection monitor" and "mac" mabye.

i guess this is mainly because msn does not use p2p. i have a packet analyzer hooked on my computer all the time and the ip i get when i talk on msn is the ip of an msn sever and not the ip of the person i am talking to.
