Someone here said not to submit more than 10
URLs from a single IP address.
Is this true?
How do I change my IP address--you guys who submit
hundreds a day, do you worry about this?

If you are using a standard dialup internet connection (modem), you more than likely get a fresh ip address every time you connect to the internet (called a dynamic ip address). However, people with cable modem, dsl, and ISDN often have a static ip address. If you want to know your ip address, use the "sign out" option on the menu at the top of the screen. You will see your name replaced with your current IP address "Guest xxx.xxx.xxx.xx".

Thanks Brett. I have dsl. Does this mean I need to use a dialup
connection when I do submissions?

I think it is wise to do so Lizzie. The more ip's you can use, the better. It is the only real concern about programmed submission that I have.
