Either your ISP uses dynamic (changes on every dial-up) or static (never changes). |

Eh, I wouldn't worry about your IP being visible. Every site you visit knows your IP anyway, so... And these things that apparently 'mask' IPs, I doubt they're very reliable. There's really no need for them. As long as you have a firewall, you'll be fine

Yeah, if you have a sound firewall, and have your security definitions up to date, you don't really need to worry about masking your IP number |
