One would think that, being convicted (though unpunished) monopopists that Micro$haft would include a bottle of KY with their "competitively priced" bloatware .... but no .... they want you to feel the pain of being "moraly supperior" to all the thieving pirates.

Larry, what you do have to worry about is if you change the config of your PC too often or too much. XP will lock itself so you can't use it, thinking that you are pirating. You then have to call M$ and justify what you've done with your own property.
