Yours may be. Not all IP addresses are dynamic, and to imply that it is
so shows your ignorance.

That's pretty rare in a domestic setting, though. I used to have one via
Demon, but I wouldn't want one now as it is too dangerous; IP masquerading
gives useful extra security for free. Couple it with a solid state router
with all incoming TCP connections dropped silently and you're relatively
safe from cold calling attacks.

I wouldn't want my actual computers (as opposed to the router) to have a
genuine IP address at all, dynamic or static. Much happier that they are
known as 192.168.0.x, as no router on the net is going to find them.

Christian.
