is there anyway to get someones ip address over the yahoo voice chat service ,
ive tried with netstat -a but it just shows the yahoo server address or something
anyone know a method

this is what i mean btw

chat.yahoo.com

There is always Social Engineering.
Just make a html page with a funny pic on or something + an stat counter ting that logs ips:) and ask the person to go to this site...
Ofcourse this dossent work is he\she uses a proxy

Im not familiar whit the chat.yahoo.com. but if its possible, try to get the person u want the ip from to send you a file, and then do: "netstat -a"

Becourse the chat goes tru the yahoo server:

Person u chat with --><-- server--><--You


But a filetrasfer should be direct:

Person u chat with --><--You

I cant think of any other method atm, maybe someone who knows the site can give u some more:)

Yeah file transfer or webcam . If anyone of u have webcam when u view it starts direct connection . Then netstat -n and u get ip .
