    Meanings of any word in an instant
    Now you do not have to carry a dictionary or install a dictionary software just for the purpose of finding out a meaning of a word. With the wealth of information in Google’s hands, its a piece of cake to find out the meaning of the word. Just use the define: keyword. The meaning would of course be displayed but also a set of other links which might have an alternative definition are also given out with the link to read more about it.

    When you receive an email, you receive more than just the message. The email comes with headers that carry important information that can tell where the email was sent from and possibly who sent it. For that, you would need to find the IP address of the sender. The tutorial below can help you find the IP address of the sender. Note that this will not work if the sender uses anonymous proxy servers.

    Finding IP address in Gmail

    1. Log into your Gmail account with your username and password.
    2. Open the mail.
    3. To display the headers,
    * Click on More options corresponding to that thread. You should get a bunch of links.
    * Click on Show original
    4. You should get headers like this:
    Gmail headers : name
    Look for Received: from followed by a few hostnames and an IP address between square brackets. In this case, it is

    65.119.112.245.
    That is be the IP address of the sender!
    5. Track the IP address of the sender

    Finding IP address in Yahoo! Mail

    1. Log into your Yahoo! mail with your username and password.
    2. Click on Inbox or whichever folder you have stored your mail.
    3. Open the mail.
    4. If you do not see the headers above the mail message, your headers are not displayed. To display the headers,
    * Click on Options on the top-right corner
    * In the Mail Options page, click on General Preferences
    * Scroll down to Messages where you have the Headers option
    * Make sure that Show all headers on incoming messages is selected
    * Click on the Save button
    * Go back to the mails and open that mail
    5. You should see similar headers like this:
    Yahoo! headers : name
    Look for Received: from followed by the IP address between square brackets [ ]. Here, it is 202.65.138.109.
    That is be the IP address of the sender!
    6. Track the IP address of the sender

    Finding IP address in Hotmail

    1. Log into your Hotmail account with your username and password.
    2. Click on the Mail tab on the top.
    3. Open the mail.
    4. If you do not see the headers above the mail message, your headers are not displayed. To display the headers,
    * Click on Options on the top-right corner
    * In the Mail Options page, click on Mail Display Settings
    * In Message Headers, make sure Advanced option is checked
    * Click on Ok button
    * Go back to the mails and open that mail
    5. If you find a header with X-Originating-IP: followed by an IP address, that is the sender's IP address
    Hotmail headers : name ,In this case the IP address of the sender is [68.34.60.59]. Jump to step 9.
    6. If you find a header with Received: from followed by a Gmail proxy like this
    Hotmail headers : name
    Look for Received: from followed by IP address within square brackets[].
    In this case, the IP address of the sender is [69.140.7.58]. Jump to step 9.
    7. Or else if you have headers like this
    Hotmail headers : name
    Look for Received: from followed by IP address within square brackets[].
    In this case, the IP address of the sender is [61.83.145.129] (Spam mail). Jump to step 9.
    8. * If you have multiple Received: from headers, eliminate the ones that have proxy.anyknownserver.com.
    9. Track the IP address of the sender

    now you can easily avoid the waiting time or usually we say time limit when you download as a free user from the file sharing services such as rapidshare, megaupload, deposifiles, hotfile. Normally you have to wait for 20-60 minutes to download the second file after downloading the first one. They implement ways to invite users to purchase a premium service. But this way of limiting Free download limit and asking free users to wait for long time to start another download can be annoying one.
