Yeah, I had a genuine laugh, after the legnths Microsoft went to further restrict piracy with SP1, then they released that KB article. I guess it's intent was for companies of legitimate volume licencing who had their key 'leaked'.

microsoft fights back but inadvertantly disables some licenses of some very high paying clients
then they release a fix
which helps the pirates
anti piracy hurts consumers and pirates
