is it possible to search for an specific LM user using their IP address and if so how.

Thank You all, you guys are great.

Yes, you'll need to know their ip address and both of you need to have your firewalls configured properly.

thanks for the reply 6_pac but i was looking more along the line of browsing a host copying their IP address down from the results tab and searching that same LW user at a later time.

Yes I do that quite often if they have many files I'm after. I make a note of their ip & try to direct connect to them at a later time. Sometimes successful, sometimes not. It depends on many things such as if they have free bandwidth & slots for upld/downld. And of course, whether they're online. Copy & paste the ip into the direct connect search type.
