How does it work?
Your client connects to other clients. Other clients connect to nodes. Nodes connect to other nodes. Other nodes connect to other clients. Your transaction becomes propagated through the network until the last client knows your transaction. The IP is from the node that relayed your transaction first. So, you're runnin' a node or what?

Every node relay every transactions, that's why the bitcoin network is a network. So your node relay all the transactions. If the transactions blockchain.info received were from your node, then it show that. It does not mean you made them.
This is why any approach to track transactions based on IP is useless and an epic fail.

There are a ton of transactions on that says "Transactions that were relayed first by the ip [my ip]" on Blockchain.info that i had no part in. Some of them are for huge numbers of coins, way more than I've ever had in my possession. Some mention services I've never used "satoshi dice" for example. And, lastly, many transactions that I did originate are NOT listed.
