okay, have (finally) worked out where the message text files are being kept
and have found the ip address (read: one *badly* set up forum).
foolish question for today - how do i then identify the user from an ip
address... i've been to a whois service, found that the ip address refers to
a large isp (bt internet), but beyond that, i'm stuck...
