dont go on line, that should do it.

if you wish to keep the machine you trade with antiseptically clean, probably impossible, but if you only use one machine to log into betfair and or ba and nothing else, then in theory you should be ok.

use a different machine to look at the racing post, listen to commentary etc, and all the rest of the junk that is the net,and if that gets infected/hacked, then your betfair/ba stuff should be ok and just use the one seperate machine to trade with (connect ba with) and nothing else.

even then the above will not prevent your betfair account getting hacked as hgodden i believe does something similar ( no doubt i will be corrected if i am wrong), and probably other stringent measures, and he was recntly hacked (see his thread).

sorry, misunderstood.

in that case i suppose you could connect via proxy servers etc(look on the web to find out how), but i would expect that would drastically reduce reponse times between you and say a site such as betunfun.

the only effective way i can think of would be to have different machines physically at different addresses, and the associated account registered to that address.

but that would not prevent someone such as betunfun (for instance), looking for patterns and deciding they are linked.

What are you trying to do? I do believe bookies have the ability to record the mac address.

My understanding on MAC numbers is it's only possible to trace if you download some of their software i.e. a poker client.
