    Hi- is there anyway to track the IP address of users who access your profile on social network sites like Orkut or Facebook. My friend has been receiving some pretty bad messages over the last few days and wants to find out if they have all been coming from the same or different people.

    Hi

    Its likely you cannot as they will connect to the Facebook or other social netowrking sites servers, but if they are causing issues with your friends, then report them to Facebook et al abuse or support dept and they should be able to deal with them http://www.facebook.com/help.php?page=9 < this is Facebooks, but the others will have a help and contact us page.
