Puts you one up on my, Mike. I still can't figure out what's being said. As close as I've come (and pardon me for over-simplifying) but...People are stealing the software. MS does something to curb that. Other people are pissed at MS for doing so. If that's right (and that's about the best I can make of it), I don't get it. I'd be pissed at the morally and ethically bankrupt people who are doing it (stealing the stoftware) in the first place.
