Kevin's point was that the MAC addresses of packets get changed every time
they go through a router/firewall/proxy.  Unless you're on the local net of
the computer you're talking to, there is no way they will know what your MAC
address is.

I don't know, and never test it, but in Windows NT you can do this with
Nathan D. Faber's "Either.exe" app:

It's a good idea read Kingpin's(L0pht) text about MAC Addres Cloning:
