I am running Windows XP & wish to completely
remove a paid for wifi hotspot, going to wireless
networks -> remove doesn't work, for the hotspot
still recognizes my computer when I turn my
wireless adapter back on (that is, it doesn't ask
me to sign back in). I also tried changing
my computer name, domain name, ... (along with
wireless networks -> remove) then restarting my
computer. How is the hotspot identifying me?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Probably the hotspot has your PC/Laptops MAC address
in it's realm, as a paid up member.
A way some wireless networks identify clients, rather
than a username/password login page.
Contact the hotspot provider, and ask them to
remove you.
