First off, be aware that NeoDesk has gone through two major revisions
since 2.0.  The latest is 2.03 and among a few new features (like
custom icons), it also fixes the GPlus incompatibility and uses a
much nicer copy routine.  The upgrade is a mere $3 with your original
disk sent in.  Second, what your dealer did is highly questionable.
The master disks are sent to ealers for display purposes only and are
registered just like user disks.  What this means is that when you send
your disk in for an upgrade it will registered as your dealers disks
and all sorts of questions can be raised.  Also, there are numerous reports
of dealers selling NeoDesks without the Install program and users running
into similar problems - was the package you bought shrinkwrapped?  If
not I would suspect the dealer.  

In summary - the Install program is there to register your disk for
future upgrades - try to circumvent this very rational and reasonable
anti-piracy routine is not your benefit.
