Well, I will give them a ring and see what they can do.

If they won't help me and I need to get a crack, will I still be able to receive security updates? That's basically the only reason I pay for Windows XP.

Also, I can't seem to find a copy of Windows XP to buy, only Vista. Is Vista worth getting? When is the service pack coming for it?

Edit: BTW I have Service Pack 2 installed and about 80 security updates it just finished installing then.
