I read this in "Information Technology Adviser" September 16, 1998.

Quote:
     "You may want to take extra recautions to keep users from getting cute
with the latest Microsoft operating systems - like swappingg CDs around and
sharing registration codes without paying for additional.licenses.
    Why? Both Windows 98 and NT 5.0 (Beta) are said by sources to
automatically "phone home" with their serial numbers whenever a user is
connected to the internet."

Can I awnser another question for you?
