The first and the simplest is to use the ‘netstat’ command from the windows command prompt
Sometimes it’s every difficult to find the exact IP address from the pool of IPs connected to the machine. Try your maximum to limit the number of inbound and out going connection from your computer while doing this. Close the browser sessions, disable antivirus updates or other software updates will reduce the number of connection made from your machine to the victims machine. Run the tool and analyze the list of IP address in that pool. Few of them will be the Yahoo, MSN or Gtalk server address and which can be easily identified with little practice. Short list the suspicious IP address and try to trace route the IP address
To trace route an IP address give ‘tracert
This will give you an idea of how far the victim in located
Next is to find the geographic location of the person.
Each ISP is given a particular set of IP address and the provider divides it among its users. So it’s possible to trace the location to a particular ISP or to a certain geographic location on the globe. You can use so many free tools available on the web. One thing to note here is no tool available on the planet will be able to provide the street level address information from a given IP address. But once you can pin point the IP address you can use the law enforcement officers to get the address from the ISP. The ISPs simply will not answer to your queries regarding the user location. So don’t waste time digging for it.
City level information will be suffice in most cases as we will be able to understand who the person is.
Hope it helps. Best of luck
