In addition to the replies you've already received, you simply cannot place
any trust whatsoever that the IP address being reported is genuine.

It is the simplest thing in the world to spoof an IP address...

A quick inspection of the message properties of this post and the before the
previous one will tell you that they are from an IP address in London.

But the one in the middle looks as if it's come from Wilmington, Delaware...

I assure you it hasn't...

This really is so easy to do that capturing the IP address of incomg
requests to a website is almost not worth the bother...

Well, I'm just trying to keep some javascript tracking code from
tracking my IP, which I won't be spoofing. I'm guessing it should work
fine in that case. The IP doesn't change.

Er, so now you're looking for a way to *prevent* your IP address from being
tracked by JavaScript code...?

As Mark Rae once said in microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet

Sounds like he doesn't want *his* visits tracked, just *real* visitors.

Or is could be more insidious...

Oh right - yes, I see what you mean now...

In which case, it's dead easy, as the first two replies have described...

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt...
