You could just go to www.ipchicken.com to get your ip when you log on, not sure how to make it automated though

when you are connected


start>run : then type cmd(or command)

once you get a dos window(if thats what you can call it) type

ipconfig,

that will show your IP, subnet mask, gateway. everything you need to know. you can do this anytime you are on the net to get your IP address.

I think that what he really want to do is send a proggy to a friend (enemy?) of him that will send to hima mail, with his friend/enemy ip address attached...

Ain't I right ??

What I would do... althout it's a long way, and not at all "invisible" is:

make a proggy that redirect to a predifined homepage every time he connects to the internet.

This webpage would be on a PHP host.

Then I catch up the IP of my "fiend" using the $HTTP_REMOTE_ADDR variable of PHP
and then use the $mail() function to get the mail with his ip attached ...

It does work ;)

Any way... another way...
instead of using email, if you have a static IP, you could use the NetSend feature from any NT kernel windows system...
