Astalavista Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 your not in any danger. it is a script that tells your ip address that is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 At this very moment when you are reading this post, you are spreading your IP... Every time you request a webpage or anything else, you have shown your IP... How could a server otherwise know where he should send the requested data to?Nothing to be scared of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 ehm... no use google!At every forum there are a couple of users who have such a sig, right-click one of those and see at what domain they are hosted. Then browse to that domain and voila. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prathapml Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Man.... ain't it nice to use a sig like that, and scare people? They think that you now know their OS, browser, IP and ISP.... But actually, even with such sigs your IP is only visible to yourself (other than the server).If you want to see how it works, or you want such a sig for yourself, go here - http://www.danasoft.com.

gamehead200 Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 nice thnx@gamehead200 the "i am currently not listening to any music" and "computer offline" refers to you?Yes... I USED to have a plug-in for iTunes that would FTP what song I was playing to my webspace and would display it there... And I also have a script in that signature that tells me (or you) if my computer is online or offline (a basic PHP ping)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
