Default finding IP

Shorty, when you bring up a file on Limewire, you can rightclick on the file and select Browse Host. This will enable you to view any folders that the user is allowing to be shared. Some naive users either keep personal photos in the folders they allow to be shared or else allow their entire c drive to be shared. When you select Browse Host the IP address of the host appears in the search tab, if you have the IP address you can also selct direct connect and enter it there to go straight into the shared folders of that PC.

I am not aware of a way to get the IP address off a Myspace page or email, but it can probably be done
