Ok first off, It's been about 5 months since I bought my laptop. I have PokerStars, MSN Messenger, And my brother has a frog game or something lol. I removed Ventrilo for now, Because I never use it on my laptop.

 

 

 

Second, I was reading through the forums, And I accidentally clicked a link, It showed all my internet information, My IP, Service Provider, and it said "Virus Download Complete". Nothing downloaded though, Should I be worried (I did a virus scan, Nothing came up), Or is it 10 year olds who think they are funny? :?

 

 

 

Thanks :)

Probably the second one, I doubt they'd say "Virus Download Complete" if they were serious. Though most ten year olds don't know web scripting :P Hell, that's probably something I'd do for fun :-$

 

 

 

Though, you can never be sure how stupid people are...

Heh, I know an 11 year old who can create a web page...

Well yeah, a five year old could make a webpage. (Was 10 for me :-$ )

 

I'm talking about the scripting that would go into it. It's just a single line of code for their ip, but i'm not sure how you'd go about getting their isp.

but i'm not sure how you'd go about getting their isp.

 

 

 

By resolving an ip to a hostname you can usally identify the isp.

 

 

 

Here is a good php extension that you can use aswell:

That's actually a pretty cool function. I'm not sure that I'd ever really find a use for it, but its always good to know :D
