• Answer:

  First of all, you need to qualify the anti-virus software you “downloaded”. You will rarely find any downloaded software that has not been compromised at some point, i.e. buy your software through a reputable retail vendor. If you are downloading any software, you must qualify the legitimacy of the source, which can be done several ways, one of which might be the Better Business Bureau. Next, who is asking for your IP address, and through what platform, i.e. did the software provider send you an email, or is an installation wizard prompting you for your IP address? You stated other sites take over your mail…what other sites, and how do they “take over” your mail. Also, what does your anti-virus software have to do with your mail? I am a little worried about telling you how to find your IP address until you find out answers to at least a few of these questions. I would hate for you to give this to the wrong people…especially if you have any kind of personal information on your computer or if you use your computer for online banking or use the internet to pay or inquire credit card statements.
