Yes, but, that just shows the ISP, I was wondering if there is any way of showing the person who owns the account that has that IP.

the ISP's want customers, so they try to protect the privacy of their customers.

so you can't really get a name from an ip unless you can subpoena it.

UMMM,
Pretty sure this is a violation of the terms of this sight? Correct me if I'm wrong.
You can't post links for tracking people's IP address, again(TOS).

Notice how they say" law enforcement only" I'm thinking it's for a good reason.

I think xwhois.com is the best option for finding the details.
