gamehead200 Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 When you're viewing the sig, no one else but you can see that sig... The only place where your IP is so stored is in the server logs... Same goes for my sig, but I hardly check the log! Ofcourse no one else can see your ip displaying image. But thats exactly my point, if someone wants to use this info all he has to do is post in some of threads and rest his sig will gather all the information. The values in the very sig can be dumped in a text file(no need even to check the server logs). Now i am not a paranoid kind of guy but just thought many of us wont even be aware of these consequences. Although its extremely easy to do that with an IP sig, only a script kiddy would do that!

bman3022 Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 this script doesnt do anything more than a normal picture does. Im getting tired of so many people saying that its spyware and things like that. It is true that people can view your ip and store them but so does this forum and any other sites you go to.

But its ok that admins of the website has it. What about every random person who sees your post has your ip and the info. You are getting tired of paranoids, make sense. But if you apply some intelligence you will notice it as well. As always, untill something goes wrong, no one even buzzes about anything.@gamehead ofcourse script kiddies will do that, and you think all professionals come to this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datalore Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 According to my calculations, 8000 IP addresses at their longest length (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) and assuming duplicates were omitted, would only take about 120 kilobytes of disk space. 20 megabytes would be over 1.2 million page views.

Anyway... even if they make the recording txt file public... who will know who you are!?!?! there are Billions of IP's and Billions using XP and Fire Fox and Freeserve Broadband e.t.c.
