    Default Calling all web detectives: is Yahoo profile and Geocities anonymous?

    Calling all web detectives:

    Are the Yahoo profile and a free geocities web-page really anoymous?

    Like in terms of people doing some kind of computer voodoo and finding out my ISP info? Or other info on me? Is that possible?

    Ok thank you for any info. I know we must have a few people on sw that would know about this...

    they are pretty hard to get info out of. The best I have ever been able to get out of Geocities was a faxed list of I.P.s with write access after providing a warrant.

    Yahoo profiles do use a yahoo account which can go to messenger, but I havn't delt with it much. Both are pretty anonymous

    nope. All your emails are id'd through the yahoo mail server, however a warrant can get the ip the email was sent from.

    long story short, I'm a "web detective" but not really that. Its not an interesting story and it wont make any woman want to sleep with me more
