'Keep Me Posted' is an 'IP Poster' that runs as a service. It periodically checks a machine's IP address and takes action if a change is detected. The action consists of either an email or a file which is uploaded to a static address. Version 3 now adds support for an external router (e.g. Linksys, UMax, NetGear, or SMC Barricade), or can get its address from an external service.
I use it jut to get my IP from anywhere... and it works like a charm...
Cons
Why CNET made "Cons" as required?
Summary
I use it like this:
Save my IP in a HTML to an online ftp storage.
HTML contains a redirection code to my IP.
To shorten my storage link to my online storage and remember it easily, I used tinyurl.
And now i can access to my IP from anywhere using a URL provided by tinyurl.

Summary
I've been searching for a program that would update me when my IP address from various computers at home changes and this does just that! The best part of it all is that the author provides this free. There are many methods of notifying me when a change has occured which is very handy. I searched google and all of download.com and this one tops them all. The only comparable program was monster IP, however I didn't feel as if I had control over the program. If the computer was not connected within the set time check it would constantly pop an error msg. I was unable to disable this feature.
Exatcly what I was looking for.. Very stable and reliable

Summary
Say your power goes out at home. Your server is rebooted and your assigned a new IP address... with this tool it runs as a SERVICE so as soon as your server come back up BOOM! your either e-mailed your new IP address or set it up to hit a URL. This program is very flexible and not specific to any one "Dynamic DNS" company so if you set it up correctly it will work with ANY of the dDNS sites! This tool give YOU the power to do what you want with it.
If only routers came with this...
Pros

Summary
This is great software. It runs as a service under win2k so I can keep track of it easier. Very clean interface.
Had a bit of trouble getting it to work with my router, but the devloper got back to me in a couple of days with a work - around.
I love it so much I made a donation!
This software that does what you want done!

Easy to install, runs on all sorts of platforms. Great package of features coming from the public (Like you and me). If you need to keep posted on you network's dynamic IP address then this is the package.
This is perfect

This was exactly what I needed, now all I need to figure out is how to update my web DNS servers when the IP changes.
