Using winsock control for finding IP addy
All I know is that in combination with HomeSeer, it works. I said I
didn't know HOW it worked to begin with. I'll bet if you look at the BAT
& HTML files, it calls something in the DLL to get the information and
then upload it to a website.
You should be able to access the same ActiveX DLL from VB to get the IP
addy and then use it however you want to.
