> On Windows, all kinds of adapters (tunnel, VPN) return a hardware address of 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-E0 (note 8 bytes, not 6). These addresses are useless for the identification of the machine, however they get used because they are the lowest value.
> A potential fix is to change the validity check to:
> if (mac != null && mac.length == 6)
