Hello,

I think HardwareID is the most common way to identify USB device, so far I never heard of HardwareID emulator.

(I don't know but everything seems possible as there are MAC address faker and even DHCP emulator)

Anyway what's driver name that you heard?

Subject: uniquely identifing USB device

Hi,
I need to identify a usb stick uniquely and I have been trying to find out weather using just hardwareID is enough?
I have heard of a driver that lets you emulate an usb device and set that ID, but quick googleing didn't give any results. Does anybody know of something like that? Is it possible to (for someone with mediocre hacking skills) to manipulate with these values? Is there a better way to uniquely identify that device?

Thanks,
erki
