Is there a common pattern or an easy way to check which are anonymous?

I notice one that I have seen a few times being 82.96. aaa.bbb which looks strange anyway, and is anonymous?

Are there any ways to check?

Cheers

I'm not even sure what you mean by an Anonymous IP.
IP's are always owned by somone.
There are various IP lookups that will allow you to find out who owns an IP. Do a search for ip reverse lookup and you will find various sites that will allow you to do a reverse lookup.
In your case it appears to be an Austrian firm hosted in Germany.

Hi,

What I mean is when someone disguises their normal IP with a different one?

This was the case here, as he had an AOL ip.

Understand?:)

You are either talking about IP spoofing, or going through an anonymous proxy. The IP address you quoted certainly doesn't appear to belong to AOL.
