Another dumb question

Is connecting to their IP address the same as 'calling' them, thus leading to big phone bills?

Never played before, so I'm ignorant to how exactly it works.
 
"Calling" IP addresses

It's just like emailing them. You're using the internet inside EU to chat. No extra cost--beyond what your internet service provider charges you.

Thank you very much for clearing that up :) Now I have to talk my wife into letting me fry my brain for 4 or 5 hrs and find someone to try a game with :D

on my machine you go into the start menu, click on run then type in winipcfg it should then give it to you.

This won't work in 2000 or XP. Instead, go to start, then go to run, type in cmd, and in the DOS dialog box type in ipconfig.
