Well the IP address isn't public. After members pass a minor background check, they're placed in another usergroup who can see the IP addresses of other members. I run a trading a forum so I wanted users to know right away whether some guy from China is impersonating someone from the US with intention to scam. But yes like you mentioned, I'd prefer not to give out IP addresses at all.

So I'm looking for a mod that does 1 of the 3 things:
1. Display the country of the member based on IP address and not show the IP address in public.
2. A button for members to click that will take you to another website and display the country based on IP address, but again not actually show the IP address.
3. Only show IP adddress for people on your contact list.
