In one post, I read that some 12 year old kid threatened all of you, and somehow you were able to find out his personal information, like where he lived and the such.
Every time you connect to the internet you are assigned an IP Address. this address is unique to you and is your identity. every time you connect to someone elce (may it be a chat server, web server, etc) your computer transmits your ip address all over the place.

Its not that hard to find out who someone is by their IP address.


and no, there is absolutely no "spyware" in EQEmu.
