He does it as a favor. The thing is my step dad and his nephew are strong believers in "if you can copy it/get a hacked version then you shouldn't ever pay money for a legit version". It doesn't help that my mom downloads virii on a daily basis in an effort to get free tools to hide what you do on the net, hide your IP, and "stalkerware" from those sites that claim their little program can find dirt on anyone by simply installing it.

Maybe those reasons are why I'm having a blast making a slipstream of XP for where I work, the install is so locked down the only thing you can do is work or turn the pc off.
