British To Release UFO Files

Sean Stidman writes "Looks like the Brits are planning to release their secret files on many UFO sightings, including the famous Rendlesham Forest incident. These files should be ready for download by the end of this week, which I guess means by tomorrow. Are their servers going to be able to handle the load?"

    Does anyone think that this will actually _change_ anything ?

    I would assume any actual ET sightings would be "redacted out", as the Brits would say.

    WinXP SP Change Product Key without Reinstall:

    You won't have to worry about it for months, since SP1 won't
    ship until September or so. But there's this procedure that allows you to change your key. Use one of
    the corporate keys generated from the keygen that's been
    floating around for several months.

    Change Product Key without Reinstall:

    1. Run regedit and go to:
    HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Cu rrent
    Version\WPAEvents, on the right double click on "oobetimer"
    and change at least one digit of this value to deactivate windows.

    2. Choose run from start menu and type in this command:
    %systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a to get the
    activation screen and go to the second option which is
    activate by phone.

    3. In the new screen choose the option to change product
    key, and type in the new product key (Corporate one only)***.

    4. Close that window, reboot your system and enter the
    command in step 2 for the second time to verify your
    activation , you should see "windows is already activated".

    ***Corporate Key Only.... pick one form below

    The Brits has bought Duke Nukem's digital DNA from 3D Realms. "We needed people who could protect our women from the aliens. Therefore we'll clone a bunch of human embryos with Duke's digital DNA, and get us some superhumans." said the British Defense Secretary, Geoff Hoon.

    Now you all know that 3D Realms has been marketing Duke Nukem's DNA instead of working on Duke Nukem Forever... Well, it's coming "When it's done"... *yawn*

    Yeah , you had rights , you just didn't need them to be written down and rammed down your throat.

    The dumbing down of society. We will only have rights if we right them down and grant them to ourselves. PC bullshit that is best illustrated by the UN.

    I hate that sort of crap.
