Do you mean like 67.187.64.8 c-67-187-64-8.hsd1.tn.comcast.net
Yep. it is in the header.

You bet. Since you are running Mozilla on XP Home,
click up a Command Prompt/terminal and do a
ipconfig /all
and see if 67.187.64.8 is your ip addy.

It depends on how much anyone bothers digging into your IP information.
Go look at:

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/ipall.ch?ip=67.187.64.8

That's some of the typical info about your IP address. You are posting
through Comcast. The registrant's info shows that IP address belongs to
Comcast and that *Comcast* listed their headquarters in Texas. However,
your IP name (from your IP address) is
c-67-187-64-8.hsd1.tn.comcast.net. The ".tn." means that you are
posting from a regional hub for Comcast that is located in Tenn.

Be careful who you're calling the moron. The "moron" was able to find
more than info that you could, and since you are more ignorant than this
so-called moron then what does that make you?
