- mac address can be changed (even I wasn't able to, because I 
have a usb dsl
modem and I cannot change its MAC working with regedit or 
using tools like smac )

U don't need to change all this because the website cannot see you mac
address unless u are in the same network segment 

If you're using a Windows box with a USB modem as opposed to a router then a
netbios query will disclose your MAC address remotely (try nbtstat -a
boxname). Don't run USB modems, or use host protection.

Cheers,

ben
