O.P. RE: (!IP) in latest version not giving proper external IP
Yes I just tested WDZ's script on my server and it works :D

I'm not sure exactly how NTL works, it itsn't a regular proxy server as I don't have to configure programs, and I can use other proxies succesfully (Ie MessengerDiscovery) so it could be a kind of a half proxy, does anyone know?

Well, their proxy is probably transparent, which means most users don't even know it's there, because it doesn't have to be configured. Many ISPs use proxies to cache content and save bandwidth.

I'm having problems with the (!IP) command too. It gives a totally different IP than the one I have. IP-sites show me the correct IP.

RE: (!IP) in latest version not giving proper external IP
my (!IP) is working fine shows my external ip, but when i type (!IP):27015 it displays my ip but puts :27015:27015 so it displays it twice :S is there any reason for this? (27015 is the halflife port, i sometimes run a listen server on my pc (incase your wondering why i use this))

==>solved my problem, i had a quick text of /ip - (!IP):27015 - which would have conflicted i suppose and so added the :27015 twice, but i renamed it so its all fine now :)

Is the script going to be changed to obtain the correct IP or is it to be left as it is then?

Don't mean to be pushy just enquiring :D  Like I said its not a problem cos I cant just use the plugin, but its an inaccuracy.

Well, I just changed it and I tried to make it smart enough to know if the var contains an ip or some garbage... let me know if it works for me... on my internet connection, the new variable just returns nothing so I cant test if it works :)
