    Also in the AO tools there's one that will tell you the location of the ip
    If the computer is conected to you via download,you can do a netstat(type netstat /? at command prompt for the various switches)and it will tell you which ports are listening,have an established connection,and trying to establish a connection.

    I dunno wat really is, but since I found nobody answer yet. So I just answer it. Emm may be u can try netstat. You can view ur current port. So if u see weird port or add I think u'll know sth wrong with it. Sorry if I'm wrong. And hope advanced outside there can give exact answer.

    If you are trying to break into your own system, why are you trying to determine where it is, what would be the need of finding out what kind of system it is? Would this not be something you already know?

    If your profile is correct and you are from India and you are really looking at your own computer, start with APNIC: http://www.apnic.net/apnic-bin/whois.pl.

    There is only one constant, one universal, it is the only real truth: causality. Action. Reaction. Cause and effect...There is no escape from it, we are forever slaves to it. Our only hope, our only peace is to understand it, to understand the 'why'. 'Why' is what separates us from them, you from me. 'Why' is the only real social power, without it you are powerless.

    are you attacking it from the internet or from within your network?

    some genneral fact finding methods:

    doing a tracert will tell you approxamitly where, if you learn to understand the location codes used in the naming conventions.

    Doing a dig will give you lots of info on an ip addy

    using ping -a will give you the name of the machine.

    A scanner like nmap can be used to find out what the OS is

    or you can pipe "echo quit" threw netcat to see how the services respond

    if its internel the NET commands will give you plenty of info or you could use winterragator
