ls pos Legacy of Sorrow	Posted - 2008.08.27 05:00:00 - [2] Edited by: ls pos on 27/08/2008 05:01:24 Yup, Tune-Up Utilities does that. Its shareware, 30 days trial, so u can just look it up. Go to "additional tools" then move along to "system information" and when in that menu press the "windows" tab. Should be stated there. Good luck Linkage to the prog

ls pos Legacy of Sorrow	Posted - 2008.08.27 12:46:00 - [5] It is encrypted in xp. Not in win98 tho
Jacob Mei	Posted - 2008.08.27 14:52:00 - [6] I never understood why the CD key was printed on a sticker attached to the CD packets shrink wrap. Its like they are asking for you to throw the key out with the trash.

Its like they are asking for you to throw the key out with the trash. Or the manual... What happened to putting the code on the case itself? ----- The above does not represent the opinions of my corp or alliance.

Which is exactly where my code is, on the side of my case.

Which is exactly where my code is, on the side of my case. I was refering to programs in general. Many new programs, especially EA Games (horrid bunch of idiots..) like to print the keys on the manual that nobody ever reads and 75% or better throw away... Why not just print it on the jewel case/dvd box like EVERYONE did when cd keys first came out? ----- The above does not represent the opinions of my corp or alliance.
