Dave,

If you do a "whois" search on ARIN.net, you'll usually get a contact
number for the ISP, admittedly here in the UK, where most are using BT,
Freeserve or AOL, it's probably going to narrow it down to london,
manchester, or one of the other major cities, but in the US (and I'm
sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong!) I believe that the major ISPs have
phone numbers for every major municipality so narrowing down to a city
is possible in some areas...

/me dives for cover after getting his facts wrong...

Matt
