Thanks -- but how do I know (from the identifying user

it is an AOL address? Sorry if this is an obvious question,
I recommend this page:

Paste in an IP address, it'll tell you what organization the network
belongs to.
It can also be useful to do a reverse DNS lookup; on Unix you'd do this
with the "host" or "nslookup" command... on at least some verions of
Windows you can run "nslookup" from a command prompt.
