Ok its like this.CC gets the info from your tcp ip info most likly witch in YOUR case is a 192# lets say your router gets the ip i dont know 45.64.23.180 well that info is ketp there it does not get to your computer in ANY WAY so how can CC get the info with out polling it from the outside requesting packets it cant so its not doable.CC can only pull info from info hosed on YOUR pc witch is 192.168.0.2 witch the ip your router gave.
