I don't want my client to do anything, but click on an icon (Script). This
client of mine is very inept when it comes to a pc, so I want to make it as
easy as possible for them.

I would like a script that would send me an email containing the ip, both
internal and external. When my client runs the script, I receive an email
with their ip's.

I am not a script guy and I have been struggling with trying to write one.
Please .
