It's pretty cool, but mine expired. It still runs, but everytime Windows boots, a registration box opens that I have to close every single time. Kinda like how everytime you launch WinZip that little window opens before you actually get to WinZip.

You should also check out <a href="http://xp-refresh.net" target="_blank">http://xp-refresh.net</a> for information about the biggest limitation in Windows XP. It describes the problem and tells you how you can write to MS about getting it fixed...
