Unless the person is dialed into the same hub of the same ISP, the trace routing tools just aren't going to tell you much.

Just follow good practice, and do not give out any personal details in a chat environment.
Sing up with a web based e-mail service (Yahoo, Hotmail, Netscape) and give out only that address in chat rooms, or to people that you haven't met in person.

Your anonimity is your best safeguard.
