Just being bored I opened a folder and selected the help tab and noticed that there is an option for "Is this copy of XP Legal?". I have been using XP Pro for over a year now and never noticed this option before, but of course I never ask windows for help either...lol.
Has anyone else noticed this feature? I did select it and windows just hanged for a few so I figured a shutdown was in order. I didnt know if it was checking and didnt want to change my key again.

Ok, so what does this option do if you select it then?

It just takes you to http://www.microsoft.com/resources/howtote...lt.aspx?lang=ww (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/howtotell/windows/default.aspx?lang=ww)
It's a guide that pretty much just tells you that you have an illegal copy of windows. Not a whole lot else, and pretty pointless.
