scuzzman Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Your "Physical Address" is the MAC address of your computer's network interface card (NIC - or ethernet card). This is transmitted through every packet you send, so even if you change it the site will be able to see the new one. Although it is unique, it can not be used to track you because every device on the internet has a specific unique MAC address, and they'd be impossible to keep track of. The only information that can be acquired through a MAC address is the manufacturer and network type of the device (LAN vs. ppp vs. pppoe, etc), so worry not :flowers: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scuzzman Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 No, your friend cannot track you using that. You're perfectly fine as far as that goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
