Duplicate I.P. Address


When it rains, it pours, doesn't it?  I am compelled to consider this message quite seriously.   If this is accurate, it could explain a whollllllle lot, as I've been subject to several reminders over the past few years that I have no privacy whatsoever, including my e-mails and blog-post drafts that have not yet been posted.  It could also explain why I alternately have trouble logging on to wi-fi at various locations.  I think I just happened to click "diagnose problem" enough times on this occasion for the message to come through.  I guess I'll have to talk to to a computer-type fella and maybe show this to the po-po, as Crazy Christine liked to call them.   Here's an answer I found to the issue on Yahoo:
It means another computer or device with an IP address (xbox etc) is trying to use the same IP address as your computer thus information is being sent to both causing problems.
Hmmmmm.....fascinating...just fascinating.
