-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I agree. I am tired of my clients complaining about the fact that I don't have any IP's lower than 200.x.x.x in Chicago. They always complain about how the server never shows up on the list...and I've tried to explain to them that it's based on the client's IP, not the server's IP. They of course, go by whatever everyone else says and they blame it on the server.
