Chatterboxes


Question Posted Saturday April 23 2005, 2:58 pm

If you don't put your name or url/e-mail in when you leave someone on a message, can they figure out it's you? By the way, I don't have one.

yes they get the name you have put in name and last name while registering so if you do not want them to get your name while registering put anonymous in name. i always put anonymous in first name and psychic in last name and i send emails like i know what you did and give people a scare.if you dont send extortinon they will not try to find your IP address no.you can only be traced if you put your real name in name and last name and if that person is a genius hacker or you sent extortion.(hope i helped *Cleopatra*)

yes they can figure out it is u even if they do not know your email address if while registering you put your real name in the name and surname category because when they get email they will get email like this:Jenifer@tmail.com<jenifer hogan.So if you do not want them to know it is you while registering put guess in first name and who in last name so their email will look like this soandso@hotmail.com<guess who

Using your IP Address (not number) they can figure out your general location, and possibly trace it from another part of the site such as a forums, or member system. They won't be able to get your address, or a specfic thing on who you are.

If you want to get technical, then yes, the person can still figure out who you are because your IP still shows up when you enter your name or even type something. All chatterboxes have that option so the person can figure out who you are somehow. There is a site where you can type in an IP and see where it's located and such. Only the person who "owns" or puts it on their site will know but everyone else won't. When someone leaves a comment on my chatterbox on my Xanga, I can see their IP if I go to the site where I got my chatterbox from.

But no person would go through that so they basically don't know who you are if you leave your name anonymous and if you don't leave a URL/email address.
