Re: [cobalt-developers] Off Topic Question



If it is a *real* ISP address, you should probably, somehow, be able to
track them down. If it is a HOTMAIL address or similar (anonymous), have
fun. The only other thing at that point is that the porno sites this person
has visited very possibly has linked his IP address with the purchase, for
these very reasons. I have seen someone tracked down by their IP showing up
on a firewall log list.
