Man, this Vista thing is getting kinda annoying... Is there anyway to change my IP Adress? I could do that whenever I wanted on XP, but now it seems impossible. Thanks in advance.

Your IP is determined by your ISP (or router), the OS has nothing to do with that. You can still manually set the IP adress the same way as you did in XP.

This is the methodI used to change my dynamic IP to a static one, you can choose the last number as you can on XP. Although I used thiswebsite, better as it hasscreenshots and a little more information.
