Ship it!


Others have pointed out some code issues, I haven't found any more.

As to the approach: +2. If memory serves me well, I implemented the hostip approach lacking a Free solution at that time. I'm happy that Free service now exists, and I'm all for migrating to it. (More so since it's -- again -- broken.)

Thanks for looking into it!
