I use a program called macshift (Copyright © by Nathan True. All rights reserved.) which you can download from here:
http://devices.natetrue.com/macshift/macshift.zip
First I recommend to write down your old mac address, if it's needed you can allways change it back. To find your mac address plz read this tutorial:
For windows XP
1) go to start, then run (= Uitvoeren...), type cmd in the box and press enter

2) Now you will see the command prompt, here you type ipconfig/all and press enter
3) The physical address (= fysiek adres) is the same as your mac address ( be aware it's the physical address from the Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection you have to look at !)

For windows vista
1) go to start, now type cmd, you will see you have 1 match, click on it

2) you will see the command promt now, from here it's the same as windows xp ( see 2) and 3) )
1. After downloading the zip file of macshift be sure to extract it in a map ( I used C:\macshift), also be sure that you have written down your old mac address. (in my case this is 00-11-50-DE-71-00)

2. Now go to the map where you extracted macshift and make a shortcut by right clicking on macshift.exe and select make shortcut (= snelkoppeling maken) from the dropdown menu.

3. We also need the name of the wireless connection. By default it will be "Wireless Internet Connection"
You can find/change this by going to start -> control panel (=configuratiescherm) -> network connections (= Netwerkverbindingen)
The name of my connection is "wireless".

4. Now go back to the map you made the shortcut. Right click on the shortcut you made and select properties (= eigenschappen) from the menu.

5. Now we are going to change the target (= doel) by adding a few parameters.
to change your mac address replace c:\macshift\macshift.exe by C:\macshift\macshift.exe -i "wireless" 001122334455
between "..." you fill in the name of you network (mine is wireless), the numbers at the end is your new mac address.
I you want the computer to choose the mac address randomly fill in the target box C:\macshift\macshift.exe -r -i "wireless"
you can change you mac address in whatever you like aslong as you take 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F ( so also AABBCCDDEEFF is possible)

6. Now you only have to double click on the shortcut and you're mac address will be changed.
