A lightweight extension that fetches your IP address and displays it in a window from your toolbar.

This extension is a re-packaged edit based on "show-my-ip" by TwinProduction.

While using his and other IP fetching extensions, I found that most, if not all of them would return errors while connected to VPN's, TOR or other Proxies and not return the IP result.

I used the base script from TwinProduction's extension and changed things around a bit and now the extension will always return your IP with no errors, even while using the TOR or any other proxy service.

Completely open source and privacy friendly.

All credit goes to Twin as he wrote the base script which I couldn't do and allowing us to modify his code.

The edited code will be posted on my GitHub page at
"https://github.com/Eddie-Burbank" in a dedicated repository.

Cheers :)
