Since EasyDNS object is an inheritted L<LWP::UserAgent>, it overrides
this UserAgent method for your convenience. It uses the credentials passed
in the constructor. There is no real reason to override, or call this.

=head1 NOTES

There are some example scripts in the C<examples> directory of the module
distribution. These are designed to run out of cron (or similar). You
should not run them to often to avoid overloading the EasyDNS servers (in fact
EasyDNS will not respond to similar reqests less that 10 minutes apart). Ideally
your code should cache the existing value for your IP, and only update
EasyDNS when it changes.
