I'm trying to analyze our web access log to report on which organizations are accessing our website. But for many of the IP addresses in the log, the reverse DNS lookup resolves to CDN domain names managed by companies like Akamai.

For example, the address 184.86.101.211 resolves to a184-86-101-211.deploy.static.akamaitechnologies.com when I do a reverse DNS lookup. But if I ping sec.gov, I also get that IP address.

I want to report on the actual organization, in this case sec.gov, not on the Akamai CDN domain.

Is there a reliable way to trace back from the IP address to source domain? Will it work across CDNs or do I possibly need a different approach for each type of CDN?

We recently upgraded to Outlook 2007 and many people find the photos in the window border to be a little creepy. We don't want to remove them from the contacts because they are useful when receiving calls on Blackberries.

I have not been able to find and Outlook option to disable or hide them. Does anyone know how to do this?
