What is an IP address?
Every computer on the internet is identified by a unique number
called an IP address. Each time you connect to the Internet your machine
is assigned an IP address. If you have a static IP address you get
the same number each time you connect. If you have a dynamic IP address
a number is assigned from a pool of addresses maintained by your Internet
Service Provider on a first-come basis. Thus you can get a different
IP address each time you connect.
What is a Cookie?
