Yoshitha,

Not exactly sure what you mean by the cpu id. You can get the client's IP
address in property Request.UserHostAddress. Note, that if the client is
behind a corporate firewall, you will get the same ip address for all
workstations on the client's network.

The only way I can think of for doing this would be to write a client-side
VBScript or JavaScript function which makes a call to the winmgmts object.

Have a look here:
http://www.mvps.org/scripting/people/bakkenalia.htm
Scroll down till you find Function CpuID()

*HOWEVER* - this will only work with Internet Explorer and will require
fairly loose security settings so, chances are if you're running this across
the public Internet as opposed to a closed intranet, it will almost
certainly not work...

Many modern processors (Pentium III/IV+) will have a unique "ID" that
they can provide upon request. There was a fear that ppl could be
tracked across the Internet via this CPU ID, so this function is now
disabled by default in the BIOS. To be able to have their computer's CPU
ID called, a computer owner has to turn this feature on in the BIOS.
Since it comes disabled by default, it is highly unlikely that more than
a few percentage of ppl have this turned on (how many "average joe"
users do you know that can get into the BIOS? Many ppl I know don't even
know what a BIOS is).
