Software Description
IP Watcher is a free software application which can monitor your public and local IP address and send an alert when an IP address change is detected. It is easily downloaded and installed as the file size is only about 1.5 MB. In our testing the installation was quick and to the point with just a couple clicks and IP Watcher was up and running. A clean and friendly user interface was then presented and displayed the “Status” window. This tab lists the computer’s name, public ip address, local ip address as well as buttons to toggle on or off the options to send email alerts and text alerts when an ip address change is detected.
