It needs to be there to identify that it is pre-released software not intended for daily use. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

You can enable and disable it at will on a released version. The reg key makes no difference on an evaluation copy.
