My IP Alert

My IP Alert is a software tool which was developed specifically to help individuals view their current and past IP addresses, and receive a notice when it has changed.

The installation process does not offer to download or add any third-party products, and upon completing it, the UI you come face to face with boasts a minimal design. It is only comprised of a menu bar, a button and a panel to display your IP. Aside from that, anybody can find their way around it with great ease, regardless of their level of experience.

This program enables you to view its entire history in a new window, along with IP address and details such as date and time it was detected on. There is also the possibility of displaying only past IPs. You can copy, cut, paste and delete this data, or undo your actions.

From the settings panel, you can program My IP Alert to send you e-mail or HTML notifications. Moreover, you can input details such as message text, subject, recipients and sender, as well as server settings, including SMTP host, user ID and password.

The refresh rate can be updated at a user-defined number of minutes, the utility can be launched at Windows startup, and it can be made non-obtrusive, by sending it to the tray.

Help contents are not provided, yet they are not actually necessary when considering how simple to use the tool is. Our tests have revealed that it is quite friendly to your computer’s performance, as it requires minimal CPU and RAM.

To conclude, My IP Alert is a tiny, yet useful piece of software, dedicated to people interested in finding out their IP address. It has a user-friendly interface, a good response time and e-mail alerts.
