A thought occured to me, since you have only one IP, I'm guessing that
you have a dynamic IP?  Have you thought about staying offline for 48-72
hours and seeing if when you come back up you end up with a different
IP?  The DHCP lease of IPs often expire after that length of time at
which point you might end up with a new one.
