It is possible for anyone with a computer to get an ip address............The min you log onto the Internet your IP is available to anyone who knows what they are doing!!Even a few who don't.....Use a firewall/ router to block it.....

Because your personal data is embedded in every packet sent, the answer is, a resounding 'Yes'! How do you think the server knows where to address the data stream?

Not if it goes through a server first. Only things like IRC that go directly between the users.
