Re: Offline validation of a genuine Windows?

I have already activated my copy of Windows on the computer wich I

I did it over the phone, and I must admit, not without hazzle. At
first it dit not activate. So I had to talk to a person on the phone
to get the activation code.

(The possible reason of not getting the activation code
automatically, must be the relatively short interval between a
previous activation and that one. I was restoring an image of my
windows installation, when the activation key hit my computer in the
need for an activation. A copy of the activation key did not help
under Administrator in Safe mode, possibly because of an new
harddrive installment).

So my question is still the same!

And until you answer the question of why you need an antispyware product
on computers not connected to the internet, then your question will
probably go unanswered.
