How Do I Find A Site's Ip Address?

Well, the topic is very self explanitory. I'm looking to find this out because it is a... Well, a security loop at school for the gaming sites I want to access. Any help is very... Helpful... Haha~aaron

what i would recomend is doing a whois on the domain. it SHOULD tell you what you need to know. but sometimes they have it so its blocked by ip, at least my schools filter does that sometimes. good luck, and if you find any other ways of bypassing school filters, let me know hehe

Umm.. Open up the command box thing (should be under C:\WINDOWS, i think - haven't used it for a while)type in netstat -an to view the ip's being accessed.

you can just ping the host too:open command prompt (start menu -> run and then type: cmd and press enter)then in the command prompt, you type:ping thehost.comyou see the ip address apear in less than a second

None of that wil work. Our school has removed "run" from the start menu, and they also found a way to lock command prompt... Man, this sucks. Our school has blocked almost everything on the computer.

Well... I could give some hints but I won't, those restrictions are probably not meant to be broke eh?

C'mon, I could do with tips too.Can't you just tell me a good WHOIS website? I've tried Google, but all I can find are ones that deal with specific ccTLDs. Its really annoyying.

All our school computers run on windows, so that wont work unfortuanately. Thanks for the help anyway.

I've just found that there's a function built into our cPanels that can find IP addresses.

In cPanel you need to look for Advanced tools (near the bottom, just above Preinstalled Scripts, where Fantastico is).

When you find it, click on "Networking Tools" and type a domain into the "Domain Lookup" box.

Hey Presto! You've got yourself an IP address my son!

Wow! Thank you so much! Homestarrunner, here i come! heh. thanks

I would also suggest: http://www.tools-on.net/' target='_blank'>They have a whole sleuth of tools. It is also pretty fast. I find myself using this website all the time.There are many websites of this kind...If you cannot find one that you like just go to goole and type in Network Tools.

Well, I tried it. Darn Bess must have had a security boost, because its not working now. Thanks anyways.Those were some pretty neat tools...

Ok, I've just had second thoughts about what I said ealier, which was kind of irrelevant to the topic. You don't need run to access stuff.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe

if that has been disabled by your administrator, meaning they have an inkling of what their job actually is, open

C:\WINDOWS\system32\command.exe

when whichever one is open, type in

ping http://www.galcomm.com/. The ping probabaly won't do much since most sites reject pings, but you should get something like "pinging site xx.xx.xx.xxx blah blah blah", and there's your ip address
