What is my IP

A quick way to check your IP using DOS:

Click on Start button –> Run..

Type cmd and press OK button.

The DOS window opens.

Type the following DOS command: arp -a and press Enter.

Look at the info displayed: it is something like

  Interface: 135.92.229.21 — 0×10003
  Internet Address      Physical Address           Type
  135.92.229.1           00-44-45-1b-d4-ad     dynamic  

Your IP is at the first row after ‘interface:’.

And your MAC /network adapter/ address is on last row: something like this 00-44-45-1b-d4-ad but with other numbers. Every MAC address is unique because it is the way server can tell one computer from another /like peoples ID on their passports/

Webpage view problem resolved

Yesterday I noticed that Yahoo page appeared bigger than usualy and half of the page went out of the screen so I had to scroll right to read.

First I thought it is a virus. Done a full system scan – no viruses or spyware found.

The interesting fact was the others pages looked normal.

I tried opening Yahoo on other computers – it looked absolutely normal.

Then I changed all possible monitor settings – nothing!

Finally, as usual, asked Google and voila – the solution is sooo simple.

I am feeling hitting my head on the wall.

There is a hotkey combination I knew before but have forgotten as I did not used it:

Hold down CTRL key while scrolling mouse wheel – the text size becomes bigger or smaller depending of direction you scrolling!

A simple resolving of that stupid problem!
