    Tracing an IP address on Chat / via Private Messages

    Hi everyone,

    I am new here, so please forgive me if i ask some rather obvious questions that may have been answered already

    I would like to know if a person's IP address can be traced via MSN Messgener/ Yahoo Messenger chats, and also via private messages on forums.I have been told MSN uses relay and as such is not direct, also that it involves accepting a file transfer. I am interested in knowing whether my IP address can be traced when i use messenger or private messages.

    Also, what is the difference between a static and a dynamic IP address?

    Thanks
    Beechgal
