PC Global Identifier

How can I identify a computer Globally?
I have tried with processor id,but it is displaying the same processor ID for Two machines.Please help me

Roshan Davis

You can identify with its network card id (if exists).

Good Luck

Alon Hirsch

You would need to get the MAC address of the Network card if it exists.
Each network card has a globally unique MAC address.
