I use a program called NetLab. What you want is under the DNS tag - it resolves an IP address to a name.
My IP address right now is 38.33.102.42. This resolves to ip42.chicago29.il.pub-ip.psi.net. This may be totally meaningless to you, but it does tell you that whatever it is, it's coming from psi.net. This happens to be the modem bank that I am dialed in to. My ISP uses psi.net, along with others, for its Net access.
NetLab is freeware and can be found on the major shareware sites.
Frequently Zone Alarm will resolve the IP address for you.
