How to Track Someone on the Internet


This page includes links to tools - and information on these tools - that run on the Internet or can be downloaded to your computer. Several of these tools were designed to make it easier to find a person. Finger, for instance, can be used to find the email address of a person, if you know which provider that person uses or what company he/she is working at. Whois is especially useful to find a person working in the IT-business. Sometimes companies or institutions run a whois server, making it possible to find any employee (see the link below). NSLookup is used to look up the name of a computer. Traceroute is not used in particular to find a person, but to trace the lengthy path an email has to take before it reaches your computer. More information on the purpose of running and using each one of these services can be found through the links on this page.
