It was my desire to have it for me in the forum, but I already have one which is done by Sandras' beautiful fingers. So, I don't like to change mine for the moment.
But if someone, or some members like to have this one, (Maybe the forum itself can use it, (a message to Sam :wink: ) ), it would be interesting.
It shows the IP of anyone visiting the forum, each computer user will have it according to its' own ISP. Here's the site:

Those "Big Brother" sigs are very clever Joudi but I think that many visitors would find it intimidating and it would act as a deterrant to anyone thinking of joining the forum!

Displaying IP address' is a very bad idea and probably breaks some computer security laws. I think if anyone used these sigs on our site we might have to consider removing them - as clive siad they are intimidating. Plus by doing this we would make it slightly easier for our members, who at times will be having serious computer security issues, to be hacked.
I agree that it is some interesting software though. Oh and Joudi we already have scripts that tells us an awful lot about our users, including your ip address :-) - paranoid yet? :-)
