The log files from the scanning tools suggested by Malwaretips are best handled by those that frequent the security sub-forum.
Surfing to an IP address will probably get you to the webpage, but the webpage itself is usually presenting info from other domains. Those domains would still need to be resolved before that content could be displayed. And then there is the complex issue of load balancing and server aliases.
You can resolve www.sevenforums.com to 184.172.52.99 and put that in your favorites/bookmarks, but DNS queries still happen when you load the main page and traffic shows to be coming from mail2.designermedia.com.
