LOL Take a look at whats in $_SERVER: <?php var_dump($_SERVER);?> Your IP address is almost for sure in $_SERVER['HOST_ADDR'] That is filled in by the web-server, and should reflect your actual current IP address. If you have a NAT-ing router in between, then, no, it won't be your "public" IP... At that point, I'd almost suggest bypassing the Registry and COM flakiness and see if something like this works: http://l-i-e.com/ip.htm http://l-i-e.com/ip.phps ymmv, but I'd much rather trust an external server than some goofy Windows registry setting... :-) -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
