I was excited to try IPObserver, since bwanadik no longer supported sending eMail notifications of ip address chances on Snow Leopard.

I set it up and it worked at first.

I was later shocked to find that IPObserver changed the notification eMail address I had entered and actually added part of my system password as a prefix to my eMail address!

I wrote to the dev and haven't heard back from him about this.

I see IPObserver as a HUGE SECURITY RISK and suggest to AVOID AT ALL COST!

Update: While I'm still not sure what happened, it's possible that another user of the computer accidentally changed the eMail rather than the program. (Not sure)
