The various methods used to constrain the possible field strength of the present day intergalactic field are considered, and Bzero (G) less than 10 to the -10th is found as a probable upper bound. It is suggested that the observed intergalactic magnetic field might not be primordial in origin but rather the result of magnetic flux leakage from galaxies and clusters of galaxies.
