Ping utility is used for test reachability of local and internet host on an IP network. It sends round trip message from source to destination IP. If source failed to receive return message then “Request Timed Out” shows in the result. Ping utility allows tracing IP address for the website and domains. It resolves the hostname into IP address. Let’s take an example, if you wanted to trace IP address of www.google.com . Go to Start > Run > type CMD >and Enter it will open command prompt.

Type “ping www.google.com” (without inverted comma”) the result shows the reply from Google.com with IP Address, that one is the IP for the www.google.com . You can trace IP and any website or domain names by this method.

There are multiple email clients like (lotus client, Microsoft Outlook, Express and many online like Gmail, Yahoo mail). To know the email sender server location and other details you have to first collect email server IP. All email client have the option to show each “Email header” Email header have the all detail information regarding that particular emails, Date, Time, recipient, and senders. I am demonstrating my Office outlook email client Headers information and sender server location. Show header option may vary by different email client. Open Office outlook Email client > select email from Inbox and right click > find the message options at the bottom > on opened message

Options windows find at bottom Internet headers: in this windows find the “From” field and there you will find the senders Email IP address.

There isn't much to dislike about Protopage. It has a very nice Web 2.0-oriented design, and it is very solid in every area that you expect from a personalized start page.

It’s totally free and sans-ads, at least for now. No registration at all is requir...
