Thanks for your quick response :-)

I have tried several programs to hide the ip but for some reason my browsers don't run smoothly and crash all the time when I do. Moreover, the damage has already been done for my and other ip addresses can already be seen on the blogs.

I appreciate your effort in this. I have found an interesting link that says that others can fake email-headers with the ip's of users. That's only one problem about it all.

"

Fabricated (or "spoofed") IP addresses
It is quite possible that an IP address in an e-mail header could be fabricated.

E-mail protocols are not secure and anyone with the minor technical skills necessary can forge any part of an e-mail. Forgeries are generally trivial to identify. We cannot locate the individuals who forge e-mail headers. In fact, return addresses can be spoofed right down to the packet level. (Just like in postal mail, one can put pretty much anything as a return address, but if there is a problem with the "to" address, the letter can't be delivered.) IP addresses can be spoofed in protocols other than e-mail, as well. (...)"

I think it is indeed a problem that should be solved soon. It's not even allowed to keep ip-addresses for the authorities for a longer time, let alone for a forum or a website on which really everyone can see the ip's. I hope you can convince the staff members. You could also inform me to whom I can talk about it because I would like to speak to someone.

Imagine some person takes one of the ip-addresses and fakes an email with illegal content.

Thanks again :-)
