Assuming you're running NT/2000/XP/2003, your answer is yes, it would, as DirectUpdate installs itself as a service.

I'm using ZoneEdit and DirectUpdate and I'm wondering how to get around this issue. This morning, my IP changed but I only have the http://www.domain.com in DirectUpdate. So, in ZoneEdit, the domain.com without the www didn't update. So people couldn't reach the domains by going to domain.com. Is t...

I've already registered DU before when I was using Windows XP Pro (32-bit). I'm using Windows XP x64 now and DU isn't accepting my old serial. Does the x64 version require a different registration? Depending on where you registered, you may require a different key to work with the 64 bit version. A...

I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, with no change.

You'd still need to some scripting on your side to accomplish this. DirectUpdate, however, does have the ability to run an application or script, or FTP a file upon IP address change. These things can be done to trigger a script on your side that would make the necessary firewall or ACL changes. The...

Can anyone recommend any free ip detection sites? The only ones I can find at the moment that work are myip.is and showmyip.com. This limits how often I can check my ip.

as for my router, the password protection is at the "ADMIN" level, ie, you have to enter a user id and password to get at any of the relevant pages - it really is designed for "idiots" who they don't want to access it !!!

Thanks for all the information in your last post. This really helped out a lot. It appears that Virgin.net (your ISP) is employing a web cache, acting as a proxy on your behalf.

Yes, DDNS is working OK again at Registerfly.com, since maybe 9-10 hours. Everything looks fine now in DU. I was able to ping dynamic.registerfly.com during the downtime but no updates were working for a few days. So, we can write this off as a problem with RegisterFly then and not one of DirectUpd...
