Deny.

This is used to be AOL's practice, but this wreaked havoc and caused 
thousands of complaints. Now, you get an IP for a session and maintain that 
IP address for as long as you are connected. Once you log off and log back 
in, you are given a new IP address -- there is no "lease life" as many DHCP 
hosts set up (where you keep that IP address for a certain number of 
days/weeks).

They switch away from the old dynamic IP system some time last year.
