Thank you for running the Windows Validation Assistant, it appears that your Windows product key is valid.

Harsh!

Bill Gates will probably make a personal appearance when he gets arrested, and probably bring the "File-Sharing Police" with him, for good measure... :P

You are unable to run the Windows Validation Assistant.

The Windows Validation Assistant requires you to be running Windows XP with SP1 or SP2, or Windows Server 2003. The Windows Validation Assistant also must be run in Internet Explorer.

damn, i forgot winXP with SP1 and IE doesnt work with this page :confused:



btw, funny that you cant use the page in browsers other than IE (bet they dont want firefox users to work with valid XPs)
