Michael:

What I said before about whatismyip.org, forget it, the server returns
this if the web is requested more that 3 times/minute.

"Error: 4 requests received from your IP address in the last 60
seconds (current max is 3 but automated agents should not query more
often than once every 10 minutes)"

Eggert:

Using "--URL whatismyip.org" still doesn't work so don't even try.

The bug is not corrected yet but I'm sure the author will fix it asap.

Regards,

Luis.
