RE: Changing the mac address on Windows 2000 and XP

["Jeff Gercken" <JeffG () kizan com>]

No need to use somebody's potentially malware infested app. (not that
these are untrustworthy sites)

Go to network neigborhood
Right click on intended nic and select properties
Click the Configure button
Select the Advanced tab
Select the Locally Administered Address (or similar sounding) Property
and change it to what you like.

Or you can do it via WMI with the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration
class.
