I think the one you give them is your outside ip. www.whatismyip.com. Make sure you put the port number at the end.

That is correct.
However, you only need to add the port number if it is other than port 80.

I am on a wireless network. The IP address that is comming up is, (i bealive), the one for the main computer on the network. If you understand this, is there any way around this.

You will need to forward the server port in your router config.
Portforward.com has instructions for most common router setups.

Hi, I'm a pathetic spammer with no life.
I have asked that my IP be banned so I never bother you again.
Goodbye all. It was fun while it lasted.
