Hey !
I bought this fancy smancy pc and was gonna install bad company 2 but to my horror I can't find my product key or the box that it came in. Is there a good niftly little piece of software that can dig up the product key frpm the windows registry ? I have tried a few but they are not really helping. I am imploring the combined great minds of Sneaky Monekys to help me out. regards Christian |

tis baffling that they have an unhashed key in the registry - it was like this in bf2, but then they hashed it during one of the patches to help limit the various smacktards with trojan infested aimbots getting their keys lifted.
