Ya it is possible to change MAC address

After the release of Win7 MAC Address Changer many people started to discuss is it possible to change the MAC address? i want to make these things clear to everyone,

  • It is actually not possible to change the MAC Address of any Network Adapter permanently but we can spoof it.
  • You can check your MAC Address by typing "getmac" command before and after using this software in Run prompt to check if really works.
  • If  you change change the MAC address of any adapter and reboot using different operating system such as Linux or any other windows based operating system there will be no effect on the MAC there.
  •  This software should be run with administrative privileges to get the work done.

    Even after changing the properties to Run as Admin, I'm still getting a .NET Framework error - "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application...Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

    If I click Continue and select my network adapter it shows all 00.00.00.00.00.00 for the current MAC address.

    Got any ideas on why this is happening?
