Re: Ip Address

Your IP address is dynamic but most Virgin Media customers will find it doesn't change often if at all assuming you are on broadband and don't switch off your modem.

In practical terms using a proxy or similar is unlikely to conceal your IP address. Indeed forums like this one can see past the virgin media proxys. We also know you aren't using one

Re: Ip Address

What dodgy things? If you have been on less than safe sites then may I be the first to say....
run a thorough antivirus scan
run a spyware scan
run a malware/ trojan scan
May I suggest
AVG
AVG Anti spyware
AVG Rootkit
All free from here
Spybot S&D
Here
Spywareblaster
Get it here
Spywareguard
From here
Adaware
From here
There are other tools to run but I would start with those if you have at any times frequented any sites of a dubious nature.
