On graal, the message system (PM system) does it go through the server or is it a direct peer-to-peer connection? If its the later, I wouldn't even respond to anyone asking you that sort of question, as it could reveal your IP# to them. I'm sure there are utilities out there that can log that sort of information.

The same thing goes for programs like ICQ, there are utilities out there that can get someone elses IP# from you if you are using ICQ, this is one reason why its so easy to "spoof" a ICQ number. If somebody wanted to do it bad enough and had the knowledge, they could have access to your ICQ account and parade around as you without your knowledge.
