mod 135640 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 Does anyone know if videotron.ca shares IP address's or uses static address's? I need to find this out as I see some stuff going on that looks fishy with matching IP address's and I would like to know for sure before I accuse someone of having multiple accounts. Any feedback would be great or even if you use videotron.ca as your ISP if you can just reply to this message with "I use videotron.ca" or something like that the system will be able to compare IP address's to make sure my hunch is correct or not. From what I am seeing everyone using videotron has a static IP so the 3 accounts that have the same IP resolving to videotron I suspect are the SAME PERSON.

mod 135640 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 Thanks Castle, all 10 of your posts all have the same IP address so you are on a static IP. I figure this is true with all videotron customers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bartholomew_allen Report post Posted June 6, 2007 I also use videotron, but with a software that hides my IP, so I might be your culprit? I decided to do that for security/privacy reasons, not to cause any harm. Let me know if that is a problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't have multiple regisistered accounts do you bartholomew? and no you are not the "culprit". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bartholomew_allen Report post Posted June 7, 2007 Well, I remember having trouble remembering my password a few times, but I don't remember creating other accounts. I do know I never posted under another name as this one. I do hope that answers your question better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been using Videotron for a couple of years ... however when the lease expires on my IP it automatically renews... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
