Activation Problem

[The Unknown P]

There are ways around the Product activation but noone
here is going to help you do what many consider to
be "illegal". The legality, EULA or not, is of course open
for debate but is best left to the legal eagles out there
to decide. Keep smiling.

Greetings --

What planet are you from? Does your local grocer let you walk out
of the market with three loaves of bread when you've paid for only
one? Can you drive two cars home if you've paid for only one? Does
your local clothier allow you to leave the shop with two shirts if
you've purchased only one? Have you noticed a trend, yet? Where in
the world did you ever get the absurd idea that software manufacturers
would sell their product licenses any differently?

As it has *always* been with *all* Microsoft operating systems,
it's necessary (to be in compliance with both the EULA and copyright
laws, if not technically) to purchase one WinXP license for each
computer on which it is installed. The only way in which WinXP
licensing differs from that of earlier versions of Windows is that
Microsoft has finally added a copy protection and anti-theft
mechanism, Product Activation, to prevent (or at least make more
difficult) the sort of multiple installations you're asking about.

It's thieves like you who have made it necessary for Microsoft and
other software manufacturers to implement copy protection mechanisms
like Product Activation. You have no one to blame but yourself, and
others of your ilk.

You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on
having both at once. -- RAH
