Changing my I.P Address

Hi guys!
A friend of mine while visiting, used his laptop on a website that I frequent and got himself banned, therefore, my IP has been banned.
Is there anyway of having my IP address changed permanently to something else?

Some friend!
Most Plusnet customers do not have a fixed IP address so you can change it by restarting your router (or disconnecting from the session and reconnecting).

Or try using "The Onion Router" https://www.torproject.org/
Providing you (your username) has not been banned you should still be able to login and ask the admin's to remove the IP ban.

Probably better to drop one of the admins an email though and let them know what happened rather than doing so via a proxy (unless you need to use the proxy to send the message that is) as it can look dodgy the other way.
