<DIV>I've encountered an unexpected problem with the following:</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV> switch (the platform)</DIV>
<DIV> case "Win32"</DIV>
<DIV> put (there is a file (specialFolderPath("system")
& "/IPCONFIG.EXE")) into winExists<BR> put (there is a
file (specialFolderPath("system") & "/SYSTEM32/IPCONFIG.EXE")) into
sys32Exists<BR> if winExists or sys32Exists
then<BR> set the hideConsoleWindows to
true<BR> put shell("ipconfig /all") into
temp</DIV>
<DIV> get matchText(temp,"Physical Address[\.

<DIV> else</DIV>
<DIV> return "Default"<BR> end
if</DIV>
<DIV> break</DIV>
<DIV> end switch</DIV>
<DIV> return addy</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I've got a fellow who, if he is connected to the internet, this will
return his MAC address. However, if he logs off the internet, this
returns empty.</DIV>
