There may not be an IP that controls........, but here is what my IP told me today :
"On the 25 of February, we recorded unauthorized attempts to probe out
networks originating from an IP address of 64.19x.yyy.zzz Our records show
that this IP address belongs to your DSL connection.
We are obligated to contact you and warn you that this type of action is
strictly against the terms of service that you agreed to when signing up for
service."
My agreement with them forbids direct or indirect violation of 3rd party intelectual propertiy rights.!! So they say....stop or they pull the plug. As of today, I don't do audio downloading, nor do I share audio or other proprietary files without previous authorization. DSL has opened up the internet for me.! I am very reluctant to return to my 56K modem.
