Finding IP through AIM Plugin?

[icallmedan]

Are there any plugins that allow one to see the IP of the person he is talking to over AIM? Is there a program for this, or another program I can use like GAIM or Trillian that will tell me this info. Thanks a lot.

In Gaim, I think you can see a user's IP in your friend list by moving your mouse over the name, the IP will appear in a popup.

Not sure though, so I suggest you give it a try, I don't have Gaim around right now.

I tried that and I dont think it works. ANyone else have a suggestion.

Send a file to them, as soon as it starts to transfer:
Type netstat -n into the command prompt. Start>Run>CMD

Then wait until the file finishes and do it again,
Whichever IP address has disappeared is their IP address.

I'm trying this, but no IP dissappeared....

Your connected directly, transferring a file right? I haven't done this for a little while, but I'm sure it still works. If AIM still makes a direct connection between machines, and I think it does.
