Thank you very much Hans, your solution is very good,  but I use Indy 
component: IdIPWatch. Its very simple. This component determines the online 
status and IP addresses for a computer. I know that, when computer is behind 
router IdIPWatch always returns C-class IP address (not global IP), but in 
my case I will always use global IP (DSL connection without router).
