How to find the IP address of your computer
An IP Address is like a telephone number for your computer. Each time you connect to the Internet you may be assigned a different IP address, or you may always have the same IP address. Your IP address is the way other computers contact you. In some situations it is helpful to know what your IP address is. For example, when doing teleconferencing, other people can call you up if they know what your IP address is. In office situations, other devices such as printers and file servers may have their own IP numbers. An IP address consists of a series of four numbers, connected by dots. An example would be: 123.99.45.67

How to look up your IP address depends on what operating system you are using.

Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows NT
Click the Start menu
Select Programs
Select Command Prompt
Type ipconfig /all
Press Enter

Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows ME
Click the Start button
Select Run
Type winipcfg
Click OK

Linux, MAC OS X, Solaris, AIX and other UNIX variants
At the command Prompt type hostname | nslookup
At the command Prompt type ifconfig -a
You may need to become root and include a full path when typing these commands.

Mac OS X
Open the System Preferences in Mac OS X
In the resulting window, click the Network icon.
In the Network window select the appropriate location
IP Address will be shown

Macintosh Mac OS 7.x - Mac OS 9.x

Our friend has done a lot of research into finding out the ip address of a computer. I don't think you have to sweat that much to find the ip address. You can simply find it by typing the following url in the address bar of your browser www.ipchicken.com
That wil instantly show your ip address. Just test it and let me know Razz
