Not quit a hundred percent sure what your asking??
If your looking for a spammer forget it they use Bots to get info..
if you could elaborate a little more??

Thanks for the reply.

What is mean is to know the date of creating a cerain hotmail address and the country it was created through.

is there any supporting site that gives such info.

Basically, no...that is account info that MS does not disclose, even to its maketing "partners".

Maybe through a court order or something.

But if you are getting SPAM from a Hotmail addrees it is 99% likely that it is not a Hotmail address at all, but that the headers have been spoofed.

If you are being harassed or threatened from someone with a particular Hotmail address, then law enforcement is probably the way to go.

This is not specifically a notebook issue, so I am moving it to a more appropriate location.

What I think you're asking is about a list of people, and their addy at Hotmail, and then date and country...right? And some places that you can join ask if you want to be in their directory..but don't think the directories would show "real" name and country (or even date and country), but unsure about that. Anyway, just did a Google on lists..found companies selling lists to spammers..blech! And ran a search on "kayofcircles@hotmail.com" (mine) just to see if got anything..but didn't get anything.

And because you appear to be female, I am tossing in some unsolicitated advice...DO NOT give anyone any personal info about yourself online unless you are absolutely sure they're "safe." There are predators out there searching for prey..and some of them are very persuasive and slick.

Females are predators too....searching for prey and MOST of them are very persuasive, slick and some of them even smell good!

I was just wondering,
howcome the FBI, CIA, Government, Cops, etc can all trace hackers back when they hack into banks etc, yet they don't wanna do **** for us when somebody hacks our computer to death and places shells in it? What are the secret methods they use to find and prosecute hackers???

[kayofcircles]

May not be true in Australia, but think all our government agencies are too busy looking under every single rock for terrorists to spend any time looking for an ordinary criminal.

Nothing secret about it they use the same tools as Hackers.."Sniffers" such as "sni256 program" which collects people's user names and passwords and then they have access.They also use ISP mail and search for certain words before they read your E-mail..They also recrute colleges and some buisnessess to set up electronic wiretapping into there systems..Use your imagination if you can think of it they have either tried it or will try it..

Most likely the reason the bank hackers get caught is not due to any investigative activity by law enforcement, but by the bank paying $$$$ to computer security firms who do most of the forensic work and then turn over that evidence to cooperative law enforcement agencies.
