Why does IP information sometime show locations so different than the actual site of the page viewer- A friend looks up my site and his computer is in Iowa but the IP information says the viewer is in Texas? Can anyone explain this to me?

http code: 200 means - ok no problems, if this code was different e.g. 404 would mean error the file cannot be found, there are others





Some of the stuff like date and size in bytes is self-explanatory.





the referrer is where u came from to access the page, or in this case ur .swf flash file.





ur agent is ur browser followed by computer info





the IP address location is of the ISP not your physical computer location all those sharing the same ISP will have the same location.

IP addresses change frequently. this way the IP registry info also changes which results in incorrect location details.
