Accessing Dynamic IP - Solution

[Ben D.]

My office PC runs thru a router which obtains a dynamic IP address each day.
Is there a program out there that I can run on my PC and have it
automatically publish this IP address to a web page or some other method --
so I can get the current IP and access the machine remotely?

TIA

remote location using a fully qualified domain name...
