    In your "Stickies" about supplying information about the users' computers, you recommend using Belarc Advisor — an excellent program.

    The only issue is the fact that Belarc, like Speccy, publishes Product Keys in it's report (near the end).

    Please modify the "Sticky" to advise people to remove those Serial Numbers/Product Keys to prevent an unscrupulous person from using them — you had, in fact, deleted a post because the person posted Product Keys and just today, I viewed another post (post #3) with the Belarc report and Product Keys listed.

    Thank you. :)

    Am I reading this wrong? Should it not be: Be careful, don't reveal your product keys?

    Thanks for posting this in both the Software AND Hardware Forums. Yeah, it must have been a "Freudian Slip".
