Why does having an IP address that ends in 0 trigger a LowID response from Emule an how can I fix it?-Any help would be appreciated.

It's a feature related to the way of calculating the ID, because zero-ending addresses were not supposed to be given to users.
In most cases when public IP is dynamic it is possible to change the IP by disconnecting from the ISP (power cycle router, for example) and then connecting again.

OK Fox88-Great to have someone's attention--How is/was it that Emule is able to KNOW my ACTUAL IP ADDRESS?-When I use Easy-Hide IP BEFORE I connect to emule!!-Yet when I connect -to the server list- and get a connect notice-EMule says because my IP address ends in 0- I have been given a LOWID- -but don't panic -it says--What I'm panicing about here is that Emule even knows my IP address-How is this possilbe and how do I fix it?--Any help will be greatly appreciated

Turn off the computer, cut all wires.
Really, how do you think you can get anything if nobody knows your exact location (IP in this case)?

Does your program/service give you socks/proxy? If yes, check Help&Support - The preferences - Proxy (click)
Or check better its features...

Proxy means Low ID and no KAD. I would not recommend using proxies unless it is absolutely necessary.
