Oh, boll...! I didn't think it's that easy to find it! I don't know what to do anymore, cause this Skype thing is the only chance we can chat a bit. Sometimes we can text to each other, but that guy is a real twat and he's checking her phone in every hour or so and making her to go everywhere with him. To much thing in the background and she's afraid he will do something stupid, like tell stuff to other people about her, she never want anybody to find out,etc. The problem is I don't know anything about her for more than a week now and it's driving me mad. I can't text her, I can't call her, cause if he will check her phone we are busted. I don't know who comes she hasn't sent me any text for that long! I'm afraid he has deleted all of her contacts from her phone, cause it happened before. Boy, I'm so depressed. I'm trying to contact her through Skype with different usernames like names we used to call each other, so she will be sure it's me, but no luck. Like she is never online, which is so strange, cause she is always on her computer. That why I was afraid about this IP thing, but it's seems like it doesn't really matter if I change my username or not, cause he can find my IP. Actualy, are you sure he can find my IP if I have sent him an email? That's not good at all, cause if he gets a little suspicious he can be sure it's me who's on Skype with "his girl"!

Not true anymore I'm afraid, you can have static IP adresses on xDSL. In fact, most ISP's charge extra for it since it allows you to use VNC, remote support and VPN more easily.
But I do agree that it's not something anyone should worry about too much, you can't get absolute proof of a persons identity from their IP address without their ISP releasing the information.
Stuff IP masking programs! Unless you're doing something criminal you don't need to hide your IP. The police and BT wouldn't be interested in somebody knocking off somebody else's missus or whatever!

Nothing to do with a router mate, all of the ISP's you mentioned can provide a static IP address if you ask (and pay)! Even AOL
That's the beauty of subnet masks!

Well, I had a bit of a luck or whatever! She has sent me a couple of text and she thinks the safest way to keep in touch is an email. I don't think so, but nevermind. You know I don't care if he will find out what's going on behind his back, but I really care about this girl and I just couldn't take if she gets hurt more than as she is already! Anyway, the new question is: Can he find my IP address if she send me an email and if I send her a reply?

Yes mate, he can
Look, to be honest i think the problem here is more what's contained in the messages rather than the IP address they were sent from!
If she deletes them straight away, and I mean properly deleting them, not just sending them to the deleted items folder, he can't get the IP address because he won't know that the message was ever there.
Your problem is that he might get to the computer before she does, in which case IP addresses don't even come into it. He's gona read the bloody message and suss out what's going on, isn't he?
I wish you the best of luck, i really do but I think the least of your worries is tracing IP addresses. People suss these kinds of situations out without having to use tracing programs or contacting ISPs.
I hope it all works out for the best for you in the end
