That IP address is the local IP on the server.

As long as the IP displays as either yours or 127.0.0.0 or .1 everything is ok. Also note that you may have a dynamic IP address from your ISP that changes, so you might see your IP change from time to time.
No, it shows my then-actual IP address. I've repeatedly checked to verify whether it was my IP or not, and every time it was mine showing on the Cpanel login. Yes, I'm on dynamic IP and and not a static IP. But that should not have any effect on the whether the Hostony server reads my actual IP address or the 127.0.0.1.

It is probably HOSTONY either using that IP to check up on your account, or they have some automated tool that logs in to your cPanel. You haven't been hacked and nobody else has logged into your cPanel.
That's the problem -- when I login into Cpanel it shows my then-current IP address instead of 127.0.0.1. It started doing that months ago, and I haven't found out why, or how to get back to the secure Last Login From: 127.0.0.1.
I have been with the same ISP for about two-years, so nothing has changed there.
This is baffling me.
Thanks again for your input.
