    I think someone is repeatedly visiting my myspace so naturally i am curious to find out who it is
    I have a feeling i know who it is, and i don't mind if they look, i just want to make sure its them (they are only looking at the profile, they aren't trying to get into my account)
    has anyone got any idea how i can find out.
    Or does anyone know how i can find the IP address of who it is?

    This matter is really important, may not sound like it, but it is

    (i'm fairly sure its someone on my MSN contact list)

    Is there a way i can find out who, or is there any software available to help me find out

    not sure what you can do, but DONT FALL FOR THE SCAM OUT THERE THAT SAYS YOU CAN TRACK WHO VISITS YOUR ACCOUNT, IT'S A SCAM AND A WAY FOR SOMEONE TO STEAL YOUR MYSPACE PASSWORD.

    Hi

    Sadly once you post something on a social networking website or any website for that matter it becomes public domain and can be viewed by anyone, nothing much you can do about that really as mentioned above.

    Although if your to continue a personal MySpace page then some steps I would recomend are, limit personal information, especially

    • Name, Limit this to first name only or pseudonym ( as in online nickname )
    • Home Address, limit location to general State, City, Town.
    • Personal Email Adress, use an online created account just for this MySpace area, that way you can dump any emails you dont want... or better still dont list an email address.
    • Personal Pictures, be VERY VERY selective in what you post.
    • Only let users on your Friends List view your Profile.
    • Re-read everything before you post it.
    • Dont use it as a chat tool with real friends, in relation to locations your going to be at, use email or a personal messenger for that.


    If you have fears of abusive posts on your Space then use the HELP pages to find info and report.

    There is no way to track who visits your myspace... I don't even know what made you come to the conclusion that "someone keeps looking at it." There would be no way for you to even know that... There are probably a ton of people that look at it. Really the only thing that you can do is make your myspace private, delete people from your friends list that you don't know, and don't post personal information in the spaces that will show publicly, even on a personal page.
