I am a member on a music site where I can download music and the site keeps thinking i am sharing my password with other people as my ip address is changing. I am trying to tell them in Ireland(they are an American site) my isp have told me I do not have fixed ip addresses so i can not use the one and that is why you keep thinking other people are using my password.

It is a great site too.

Use a proxy. Look up iol support for the address.
