Why?

In principle, it is possible just for some kind of browsers (guess which kind :-), but most security-savvy users will have to blacklist your whole site for doing such dirty tricks. However, such users usually avoid using such browsers. I can see you "ActiveX" tag — it really tells the tail.

Sir,
In activeX control working, only user need to manually enabling this option(Security->Internet->Custom level Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe for scripting - >Enable(not secure) ). We can’t guide all user to enable this option. So i need alternative solution for to get MAC Address.

If it's over the internet you can't get the user's MAC address as the server doesn't know it.

javascript

JavaScript

var macAddress = "";
    var ipAddress = "";
    var computerName = "";
    var wmi = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}");
    e = new Enumerator(wmi.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration     WHERE IPEnabled = True"));
    for(; !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext()) {
        var s = e.item(); 
        macAddress = s.MACAddress;
        ipAddress = s.IPAddress(0);
        computerName = s.DNSHostName;
    }

C#

using system.net
using System.Net.NetworkInformation

IPAddressInformation Class (System.Net.NetworkInformation)[^]

PhysicalAddress Class (System.Net.NetworkInformation)[^] is for mac address
