hi,
I'm designing a webpage in asp to capture ipaddress, softwares installed and more from people who are accessing that page.

Request.ServerVariables will provide ipaddress, type of browser etc. and some more of the HTTP Headers.

I was worndering is there any possiblilty to capture more things like the client screen resolution, how many browser windows are open , Is flash, realplayer etc installed on the user's computer from a web page.

If possible please give me a code snippet.

I wanted to capture the windows user name whom ever accesses the web page, But since its an anonymous user I cannot do that.

I found a com component called Browser Hack from www.cyspace.com. I know that its not installed in HMS. ( Its also expensive).

Can anybody help me capture some extra things from a user's computer when somebody visits a web page.

Some Easy way in asp/vb dcript/ java script ( apart from Server Variables)

Bye,

what you can't collect via ASP you can collect via JS and then find a way to pass it to ASP, by Querystring, etc...

Thanks a Lot !!

I understand that.

Rite now from Java Script I detect if

Flash, Adobe Acrobat , Windows Media player are installed

I'm able to find the resolution of the computer .

If JRE is installed on the user's system.

I need some more things that can be detected from JS.

I want to find the windows logon user name. Is there any way to that in JS.

Somebody told me u can find how many browser windows are open from a web page. ?? Any Suggestions.??
