Hi,
Unfortunately, if your Internet Provider hides you behind a proxy server, as mine does, you get the ip address of the proxy server.
To get the actual IP address of your PC open a command prompt window and type:
ipconfig - for a cut down report that shows your ip address
ipconfig /all - for a full report
