If you think that juries will go for this, check out this link:

Here's a quote:

During a 45-minute telephone interview, Hegg said jurors found that Thomas'
defense -- that she was the victim of a spoof -- was unbelievable.

"She should have settled out of court for a few thousand dollars," Hegg
said. "Spoofing? We're thinking, 'Oh my God, you got to be kidding.' "

"I think she thought a jury from Duluth would be naïve. We're not that
stupid up here," he said. "I don't know what the f___ she was thinking, to
tell you the truth."

I have yet to see the article on this.  Just someone giving us
information on said topic.  Do you have a link to the actual article.

On what? Changing MAC addresses?

google://mac+address+change

Or see the man-page for ipconfig.
