[FX.php List] Different REMOTE IP each screen

[Jonathan Schwartz]

Thanks Bob,

I do understand the difference between static and dynamic IP 
addresses, particularly  as assigned to home users.    Sometimes, 
dynamic addresses turn into  "persistent dynamic" addresses which can 
stay the same for days, weeks, and months.

However, I have never seen IP addresses that change with each new 
page ( 4 times within a minute in one case), as a user advances 
through a web site.

It forces me to rethink how I track and visitors in my log file.  Up 
until now, I was relying on a single IP per visit.
