GUICtrlSetData setting too much?!

[layer]

hey, i was just wondering... what is the dealio with this below portion of code?

ProgressOn ("Getting IP...", "Getting the public IP address needed...")
InetGet("http://www.whatismyip.org", "publicIP.tmp")
ProgressSet (25)
$publicIP = FileReadLine("publicIP.tmp")
ProgressSet(50)
GUICtrlSetData($Input_2, $publicIP)
ProgressSet(75)
FileDelete("publicip.tmp")
ProgressSet (100)
ProgressOff ()

it should show a progress, get the publicIP from whatismyip.org, delete it, set the gui controls data with the ip from whatismyip.org and delete the .tmp and turn the progress off... lol, for some reason it returns

12.345.678.9XXX.12.345.678

thats just a fake ip, duh, but i know its not that long! i went to the site just to double check, and opened the .tmp file to check too, no luck... any ideas? and the GUI is barely built yet... just a basic if $get=-3 then exit loop... why would it do this?!

Works fine for me, even though I had to build my own GUI and I'm super lazy so I almost didn't. Try posting your whole script, it must be something else causing the problem.

GUICtrlSetData($Input_2, $publicIP)
ProgressSet(75)
FileDelete("publicip.tmp")

ProgressOff ()


GUICtrlSetData ($Input_2, $publicIP, 1)

GuiSetState()
While 1
    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop
    Case Else
    ;;;
    EndSelect
WEnd
Exit

now im thinking of just stopping the project though... i just have too much going on its hard to work, but i'd still like to see what the solution is for this, thanks!
