Configuring IP Watcher:
In order to setup IP
Watcher to email you, upon an ip address change, we need to use the
"Configure" option of the taskbar tray icon pop-up
menu (Figure 1). You can access this menu by Right-Clicking on the
IP Watcher Icon located at the bottom right corner of your computer
screen (Figure 2).
