Plus not to mention that microsft keeps an eye on the keys that are being
passed around on the net and tend to put the ones they find into service
packs, so when you install them they go "hey dumbass, this is a pirated copy,
p0wned!" So you have to change the reg# to something else.  Not like have
ever experienced this, but i've heard about it. :)
