When I spoke with a moderator and was asked to check the IPs of my sign-in logs, I found I had 5 different IPs. :o

Sometimes when I log into personal accounts, I receive an alert which indicates my computer is not recognized and I must answer prearranged personal questions.

I have never had power outages, nor has my modem been turned off or have been reset.

I used CCleaner before logging in this morning and recall doing so on 2 ocassions before I logged into an account and was told my computer was not recognized.

I also was concerned something was amiss, however now it does not appear to be.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22584880 Sat, 20 Jun 2009 22:01:14 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22584871 Cora : Thank you for all the replies.

When the power came back on the modem could have acquired a new connection with a new IP address. Just one idea of how it could have happened. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22569817 Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:07:25 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22566930 nwrickert : I'm not sure that I understand the question.

I have often seen that message. I'm not sure what you find bothersome about it.

If I login into my work system, I am also told the IP of my last login. That's just meant to be information for the person logging in. If I were to see a "last login" ip address that was not similar to the ones I have used, I might be suspicious that somebody else had broken into my account. By providing that information, the site gives me a way of checking.

I just logged into this forum using the same home computer, username and password I always use and was met by the following message:

Welcome Cora,

This browser will remain logged in
Last login not from 96.224.xxx.xxx was from 96.224.xx.xxx (6 days ago)
Your account is a basic free account

In logging in, you agree to site terms of use

The only possible change I may have made was in browsers. Sometimes I use IE and sometimes I use FF. Can this cause me to have 2 IP addresses?
