: Hey Herman,

Murad,

        I admit that the owner of a network could get into trouble for
trying to ID the person who has illegally connecting to their
network.

        Uh, wouldn't just running ipconfig/all show one all the computers on
their network.  And being as it would be run only on the network
owner's computer they haven't "hacked" anything have they.
