    Well any good Virus scan picks it up anyway and has been included in every Black , Indego or Slipstreamed flavour or XP . Very simple to delete after set up , its in the Key folder , just scan and delete .

    There is no functional difference between OEM, Retail and Student.
    In theory (at least as I understand it), the licensing restrictions are what differentiates the three.

    -Retail allows for installation on any PC as long as only one PC is activated at a time.
    This means that as you upgrade the hardware (say from s939 to Intel Core2) the OS can be transferred as well.

    -OEM is tied to the hardware on which it was originally installed by the manufacturer.
    In theory, when your eMachines with XP dies, that copy of XP dies with it.
    In practice I have found this is not true. OEM versions seem to require phone activation more frequently than the other two but I have never been denied a new code.

    -Student is simply a budget priced version of the OS sold through special agreements with schools.
    My version of XP Pro is over 4 years old and was purchased through the U of Iowa for $6.70...brand new and legal.
    It's still in use (on this very PC), has seen multiple hardware configurations and been activated countless times with no problems.

    That has worked perfectly for me for around 14 months now. Zero problems.
