    You didn't specify if you have a router or are using wireless.


    Mac spoofing if generally hard to prevent although you can throw up obstacles which may cause them to loose interest and to go after an easier mark.


    See if the following links (possibly refined by additional keywords) may shed some light on this matter:

    No i don't have a router or wireless, just a modem DSL.

    And thx for the answer......

    Adding a router in front of your DSL modem would potentially help to increase the difficulty level for any hacker since the router would have its own MAC address and also provide NAT as an additional complication layer.
