Go to showmyip.com or lookupip.com to find the IP Address Properties of your Internet Connection. Here we show you all the information about your Internet connection that all the web sites you visit know about you - or at least believe to be true about you. This includes your IP Address, Internet Service Provider (ISP), host name, Organization that owns your internet connection, country you are in, language(s) you understand, RBL/DNSBL blacklist and blocklist status of your IP Address, possible state/province/city you are in, operating system and CPU you are running, browser you are using, the local time on your computer, the resolution of your monitor, and whether you have Javascript, Flash, Java, and/or cookies enabled.
You should note that your name, street address, email address, and most other personal information is not included here, because web sites cannot determine this information simply from the Internet connection you have to them.
Subscribers of our IP Address Lookup service should go to www.ippages.com/lookups. This service allows you to send us IP addresses or Domain names or Tor network proxy nicknames or fingerprints and get returned to you, in real-time, a list of properties about each. You can use our http or https interface to do lookups one at a time to your browser, use our XML or SOAP or simple text interfaces, or upload a file of IP Addresses to get these done in bulk. We are currently the only lookup service that provides you with results from multiple data sources, so you can have greater confidence in our results. Our average lookup time is under 1 second, although some lookup data fields, such as DNS Registrant name and address, are dependent on the response times and speed of other internet servers that we have no control over. We offer a free version of this service at www.showmyip.com/lookups but subscribers get access to more lookup data fields, have no daily lookup maximums, and get use of ippages.com which is faster and more consistent because it is available almost exclusively to paying subscribers.
Subscribers of our Super Dynamic DNS service should go to www.ippages.com/dynamicDNS. This service allows you to setup a domain name for yourself, regardless of your IP address, and separate from what your ISP assigns to you. Check out www.ippages.com/dynamicDNS/why.php for more on why you might want this.
We currently have the following domain names available as part of this service:
Geospoofing service now available on a tryout basis for up to 1 hour per day at www.pickaproxy.com. This allows you to use the Internet through the Tor ™ network, without the need to purchase, install, upgrade or configure the Tor ™ and Vidalia software on your computer. Those who can "speak" Tor, would likely prefer to use www.pickaproxy.com?speak=tor in order to get more details about the Tor ™ network.
Geospoofing service by subscription is coming soon to www.pickaproxy.com which will allow you to dynamically pick the geographic location you wish to appear to be in. Subscriptions will likely be based on a fee per month.
