Get them to send you an email somehow, it doesnt matter how, you can just send an email saying:
"hey, how are you?" and they'll probably reply. Once you have their email (dont use old emails, please, everybody uses dynamic IP's these days)
right click on it, and click "view source", you will see something like this:
[spoiler]

[/spoiler]
...now you want to find "X-Originating-IP: [XX.XXX.XX.XX]" That is their IP address. If the email source is all jibberish and looks encrypted, try what one user suggested:
[size=medium]Website:[/size] Go here
http://www.syntaxmaster.info and register an account for free, it's real easy.
Now once you're registered, go to Software/Tools > IP Stealer; and then you can type in the URL you want your IP stealer to redirect to.. so just google or myspace or something will do. Now you'll see above that they give you your URL, you just send them there and it'll grab their IP, redirect them to google (or whatever site you choose), and then show their IP down at the bottom of the page.
I suggest using spam or
http://www.*****.com/ to shorten your URL and make it custom, you could make it something like:
http://www.*****.com/profile-329479
And viola it'll look like a social networking site "Hey, I'm katie.

I'm looking to meet new people and was wondering if you wanted to be friends? ^_^ This is my profile btw: <give fake link>"
Something like thaat. :P
[size=medium]MSN:[/size] if you can talk to them on msn, then you can get their IP that way too..there's two ways, either download a easy-to-use script, or do it manually with cmd,
i'll show you how to do it manually first.
Manually: Send them a file, or get them to send you a file.
"hey, i love that song, can you send me it?" or "omg, this is the funniest picture ever".
Before you start the transfer though, goto start > run (if you're using vista, just press the windows key) and type in cmd, and hit enter.
type in the following: netstat -n
and hit enter, it will show you a list of active connections to different IP's.
Remember or take a screenshot of those IP's, because once you start the transfer, type in netstat again while it's transferring and check for any new IP's, that is your victims IP.
With a script:
IF you have windows live messenger plus (probably the best WLM IMO), download this script:
http://**********.com/files/133356881/IPGet_1.50.rar
It's called IP-Get, and will show you your current msn contacts IP addresses IF you're currently connected to them with a fileshare. It will also allow you to save the IP addresses, and look up their locations.
Here is a screenie of IP-get:

[/spoiler]
There are other ways, but surely, you should have been able to get their IP by now...if not, look up a tut on it, using the search feature.
Step 12: Your internet service provider
very easy to find, use their IP, either using the IP get script if you have it, or
IP Tracer, IP Tracker, IP Locator and other DNS tools
Step 13: The last date and time that you successfully signed in
Unless you know this as a fact, either take your best guess, say you dont remember, or yesterday.
Step 14: The names of any folders that you created in addition to the default folders
leave this blank, or say you dont know (unless you know this for a fact).
Step 15: Names of contacts in your hotmail address book
give them all the contacts you know are definately or most likely in there, including yourself, and even their other accounts (they might add themselves, everybody seems to). Also give them
wilma@live.com and smarterchild@
hotmail.com, as most people have them added.
Step 16: Subjects of any old mail that is in your inbox
okay just use common sense for this one, things to include are:
hey, how are you, RE:, FW:, admin, windows live, hotmail staff, recovery, registration, support, lol, password, comfirmation, noreply, delivery status notification (failure).
Also, if they are subscribed to any forums (like **********(but please dont hack other HF members :P)), social networking sites (like myspace, bebo) or online games (like Runescape (all discussion banned on HF), WoW), then be sure to include them too.
Step 17: Names of contacts on your messenger contact list
If you happen to know any of their friends, this is where you put their display name...if you dont have them added, put their first names, and if you dont know them at all, just leave it blank, or say you dont remember.
Step 18: Your Messenger nickname
If you know it, put it in..if you dont, say "i cant remember it exactly" or leave it blank.
Step 19:
The rest you dont really need to worry about, except for in additional info, can put anything else that might make you sound more convincing..like:
"
please do your best to recover my account, i dont want to go and have to add all my friends again, it'd be a great help if you got it back for me, thank you in advance."
obviously dont put exactly that, but you get the gist of it
Okay, i believe that is it, within
24 hours you will recieve an email from customer support, they will either give you a link to reset your (victims) password, or ask for you to send it again with more info, as an email reply..and in that case, you dont have much luck, cause they can just get your IP address from the email and know you're lying

so try again, and hope you get a more gullible staff member. If you have firefox, click the spoiler.
[spoiler]
This add on for firefox will be very useful if you need to do it again (and a lot of other things!), it saves all typed/submitted text, so you just need to go back to that page, right click then click "recover form", click the most recent one, and recover it then resend.[/spoiler]
I did give you a link to download earlier, here is a virus scan for you guys who arent sure.
If you have any questions, ask here, do not PM me. I didn't rip any of this from other tuts, typed it up myself. Thanks for reading, I know it's long, I've reached the max character limit
[size=large]FAQ:[/size]
Are in here
Q: My target has moved location since he/she registered, do I put in old or new info?
A: Put in the information they registered with, the old information.
Q: I looked up where they live, there's atleast 20 post codes for that area! How do I know which one is theirs?
A: You'll most likely find they all start with the same two digits, if they do, it doesnt matter which one you pick all will work. Since they only go by the first two digits when validating the zip/postal code, you dont need to know their address or anything, you could even go by IP location.
Q: I dont know their age! What should I put in?
A: If you dont know their age, try 1992, that usually works for some reason.
Q: They wont reply to emails from me, I dont know how else to get their IP?
A: If you dont want to add them on MSN and use IP get or CMD, a way that has worked for me is using the site I showed you:
Email Password | Address | Location | Hack Facebook | Cash Advance at Reza24.com and masking your link with a URL shortening site. Three sites I know of are:
*
www.tiny url.com <<< I need to put a space in it, otherwise it's censored for obvious reasons.
*
Rick Roll It! <<< dont worry, it's not a real rick-roll lol.
Or one somebody just showed me and it's worked like a treat:
*
http://*****.com/
The first one you could pretend is some kind of picture site, the second one you could say something like "omg dude check this out, this site makes free links that redirect to a rickroll! http://************/custom-rickroll", but dont actually go there i'm not sure where that link leads to lol.
The third is great though, it could pass as a social networking site like myspace.
Q: Do any other webmails hosts like yahoo mail or Gmail use this? Can I use this method on there too?
A: They have revert forms too, but they log your IP when you submit it, so they will know you're not the owner of the account. Hotmail doesnt log your IP.
