IP Desktop Viewer is a small application that will display your current external ip address for you on your desktop. IP Desktop Viewer will show up as a system tray icon. If you hold your mouse over the icon your current ip address will display. If you right-click on the icon you will see a pop-up menu to either "refresh" your ip address which will newly check your external ip address. Or you can exit the program from this pop up menu. Upon install you also have the option to run IP Desktop Viewer at start up.
