IP address question
Well, I just realized that 0137.0333.0227.0070 is octal for 95.219.151.106. But I had no clue that octal numbers could be used in an IP address. Is that a function of the browser? -
IP address question
The address, as well as a bunch of others like it, are in some spam I was getting. My thing was I knew that it wasn't a valid IP but couldn't figure out how the address was resolved and redirected to another site. I had asked several people and nobody knew what I was talking about. Do you... -
IP address question
I'm not a professional but have a question that I can't seem to get an answer to and this seemed like a logical choice. What kind of IP address is this: http://0137.0333.0227.0070/ This doesn't seem to be a valid address yet it resolves and I have no clue how or why. Thanks in advance. Jeff
