if you have access to a machine that has php then you can put this in a
file called say - myip.php and then refer to it as

http://www.myhost.blah/myip.php

<?

  print ($_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]);

?>

either that or use http://www.focb.co.nz/myip.php (NZ site - may bypass
international proxies that could mangle your address) or
http://wibble.focb.co.nz/myip.php (international - may end up with your
isp's proxy address)

and if that doesnt work, then telnet to wibble.focb.co.nz on port 1010 and
you will get your ip address returned.
