IP Address
When your web browser or email
application requests a web page or email from another computer on the Internet,
it automatically gives that computer the address where it should send the
information. This is called your computer's "IP address." (IP stands
for "Internet protocol.") For most users accessing the Internet from
a dial-up Internet service provider (ISP), the IP address will be different
every time you log on.
