i got an email in october, and it was pretty specific to my life. I have no idea how this person could have gotten my email address other than checking my boyfriend's email. I just got to researching the other night and found out about IP's. (tell you how novice i am?) Several of my searches led me to this site, so I joined today to see if you can help. I searched other threads like a good little newbie, but I don't understand most of what is being said. (I learned regular old MS-DOS commands in high school, and that is about it.) I downloaded email tracker pro, Net trace Pro, and active whois. I can only get that it is alltel. I understand that it uses dynamic IP's, but if i have the date and time, is there any way to pinpoint the user? My boyfriend's ex wife lives in alltel service area, and she thinks my name is the same as my email address. I highly suspect it is her. The reports I am getting are really over my head, and apparently are giving me the current user of that IP address or something. I am going to cut and paste the email information I have. Please help.
