You can find a windows port <a href="http://users.ugent.be/~bpuype/wget/wget.exe" rel="nofollow">here</a>. HTML tags are not removed from the file so its contents would be something like:</p> <p><code>&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;Current IP Check&lt;/title&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;Current IP Address: 1.2.3.4&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;</code></p> <p>Here is a Windows PowerShell script that does the same job <strong>AND strips</strong> the unnecessary text.</p> <p><strong>get_my_public_ip.ps1:</strong></p> <pre><code>(new-object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('http://checkip.dyndns.org')|% { $_ -replace '.*Current IP Address: ([0-9\.]+).*','$1' } &gt; C:\dropbox\my_public_ip.txt </code></pre> <p>Check <a href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee176949.aspx" rel="nofollow">here</a> for some help on how to run Windows PowerShell Scripts.</p> <p>Hope this helps</p>
