Technitium MAC Address Changer allows you to change Media Access Control (MAC) Address of your Network Interface Card (NIC) irrespective to your NIC manufacturer or its driver. It has a very simple user interface and provides ample information regarding each NIC in the machine. Every NIC has a MAC address hard coded in its circuit by the manufacturer. This hard coded MAC address is used by windows drivers to access Ethernet Network (LAN). This tool can set a new MAC address to your NIC, bypassing the original hard coded MAC address. Technitium MAC Address Changer is a must tool in every security professionals tool box. Technitium MAC Address Changer is coded in Visual Basic 6.0.

This “just” changes the locally administered mac address.
So you can always just check the “Globally Unique” bit and guess the mac address is spoofed …
Wonder if anyone made an iptables filter for those actually .. block them off my network …
ZARk says
ah well, hold the press.
After a quick check, it turns out it’s the administrator’s responsibility to set that bit if he changes the MAC address.
So yeah, you can put a locally administrated mac address that appears to be a globally unique mac address.
