today i learned how to track down where servers are by backtracking where the connection gets rerouted. simply go to the cmd. Then type in: tracert [website address here] Then take the final ip and give it to a ip tracing website such as http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer/ I did this for compsci and I found it was in, http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer/64.85.160.31 |

Yes, this can also be done in Linux and Mac OS systems with the "traceroute" command. It's nothing really new. Also, sometimes if you use "whois" on a website, they will put their address which is a whole lot more accurate than your website. Edit: typo |
