Apologies, did not mean to confuse you. MacOSX has a console which logs system actions including the firewall. I am not sure if any Windows firewalls have anything similar.
The last two numbers of any identity are probably 95% of the time the last two numbers of their host address. So I simply type these into the firewall console and it brings me back the possibilities and how many connection attempts they've made.
Alternatively I also use a 3rd party frontend to the OSX firewall which can list connected hosts.
