Aaron Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 MS has changed the KEY algorithm because of piracy (XPkeygen)from MS intranet:"New Product Keys are required for all Server builds starting with today’s RC1 Lockdown build (build 3639). You must go to http://PKD to request new product keys for the builds that have the new algorithm. Read the below for any questions you may have.Why is this change necessary?This is our latest anti-piracy measure designed to render hacker generated product keys useless in Windows.Net products. With this change, previously issued server beta keys and non-Microsoft generated keys will not be accepted during setup.What products does this change affect?All SKUs in the Windows.Net server family will be affected. This includes Webserver, Standard Server, Small Business Server, Enterprise Server, and Datacenter Server. The change also affects all Windows.Net 64-bit products too."
