No, it's not. That person could access your application from anywhere, and if all you have are his name, email and user ID, that's not going to tell you anything about what machine he's coming from.

My application?? I just wanted to find somebody, and I have his full name, social security and email. I just wanted his ip address, which would at least tell me in what country he is living. – Carlos Feb 18 '11 at 15:53

2@Carlos: You cannot determine someone's IP using that information alone. – BoltClock Feb 18 '11 at 15:57

What do you mean by his id? An email address and a name are not sufficient to retrieve an IP.
