Does anyone here know how to get a new ip address? A friend of mine(not me) was banned from a forum and would need a new ip address to be able to get back on this forum(not NIR or the like). Any suggestions? Would it simply be a matter of requesting a new one from the internet provider?

Turn off modem for 5 minutes. If that doesn't work, leave modem off for 24h, and reconnect.

Using the private browsing feature on Firefox will essentially delete cookies as you are starting "fresh". But you still need a new IP address as that is how most bans are done. Mike's suggestion will work unless they ban the entire range from the ISP. There are services like hidemyass.com/ and similar, just Google 'web proxy'. I also have one at jojoplace, but I'll post the address at members only: invanddis.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=members1&action=display&thread=6939
