IP Address Problems

[xirox]

I have created an instant message application that allow me and my mate to talk to each other. At the moment we have to use ICQ to let each other know what our IP's are (they change everytime we connect to the internet)

Is there an easier way of doing this, how do applications like Nutella (napster type software but without the host) communicate without a central point? They say that the only way it can be shut down is if all users are offline, how does one instance of this application know what the IP's are of the other instances?

Any help would be appreciated
