Yes. If it had been 8 years old, I would have done the same. It doesn't matter hold old a post is, if something needs to be said that wasn't said 8 months ago, I could care less if you were inconvenienced because the post was resurrected.

I came across this while looking for some examples on getting an accurate IP address (since AutoIT documentation for even the most current version still says "@IPADDRESS tends to return 127.0.0.1 on some computers", which is unacceptable). I have to say that the experts on this forum certainly bend over backwards for posters who are looking to be taught and have their code written and re-written for them and modified to add functionality etc. I could never handle doing someone's work for them. I think it's one thing to ask for a snippet of code or an example or a reference, but basically asking someone to do their job for them because they are just too frazzled to understand basic code or to dive in and learn the basics and progress like the rest of us through trial/error and searching for answers is really unbelieveable. Hats off to guinness and the others for their patience and generosity.

It would be helpful if you edited the first post to say that you pulled this script and it's no longer available for download. I went through the whole post analyzing if this will work for me and read through all the issues that got worked on only to get to the end to see that the script has been removed. Even though you say the code is broken in the latest versions, would you mind posting it for archival sake so that someone might find it useful and update it? Looks like you initially put a lot of work into it... kind of sad to see it just die when it could help others.

Thanks for the code shell. Looking to do this for a small script I have and didn't want to get ultra-complicated. Will use your layout today and see if I can get it working and if I can suggest any tweaks. Thanks for submitting.
