    Pull the stunt whereby he tells you who your IP is when you read his post? And it varies depending which IP you are using. Sorry if it's obvious - not very technical!

    Your PC broadcasts an ip address

    Mossman had a bit of software that:-
    reads the email address broadcast (our site also does this)
    looks up which isp it belongs to
    and displays them back at you in a picture.

    Not really clever but looks good

    Cheers, think I've got it now. By the way, I've just been getting the closed for maintenance screen again.
