How can I find out the computer's IP address using ICQ?
This could be helpful, if I - for example - see on my contact list that a
friend is online
who's running Farallon's Timbuktu Pro - so I want to connect to his
computer, but
since he has a dynamic IP I'd like to know his current IP address.
Is this possible via ICQ or via any other application?

Thanks in advance.

If there's any ICQ option that let's you chat directly with someone on
that computer, establish a connection, and then use netstat to find
its IP address.

What's that?

You may have the other party automatically "advertise" its IP address
on a web site, or use dynamic DNS, so that you don't need its IP
address, but access the computer by means of its domain name.
