Find My IP address and display it

[netlogixs]

Hello, can any body tell me about a software which can capture and display my broadband dynamic IP address on my computer desktop. Something like a desktop clock which keeps telling the time. In the same manner can my IP address be displayed on my desktop. Can someone tell me about it ???

If you use Windows Vista you can also use a Sidebar Gadget called Wired Connection Monitor.
