Rick,
Can't you go to FS Activate site and request ILM Auth Reset that way? What you need to do is to type the email address that the product is registered, and the serial number. An email will be sent to verify that it has been reset. 
Cheers,
Joseph

I actually have done that. But when my keys 
get down to one I know to call
FS. if that is on the weekend then I wait 
till monday.  I understand his
gripe but still one needs to know the rules 
of the product they are using.

I can see where he's coming from... I 
suppose if you want something without
this problem, you'll have to get a dongle, 
for $45.

For one thing, it's not a problem. It's by 
design.
It's a problem for me! I don't care if it's 
by design.
My CD-ROM dies and instead of just being able 
to swap it out, I have to call
FS and get reauthorized? That's bogus. Why 
would I care if it's a bug or by

design



For a second thing,
if you're going to be using it, you'd darned 
well better read up on it.


Who says?
An authorization scheme that requires you to 
study it is itself a defect.
I'm a professional programmer. And I 
consider it a failure on my part every
time I have to explain how to use one of my 
programs.  Sometimes it's
impossible to have things simple enough that 
they need no explanation.  But I
haven't had to study the authorization scheme 
for any other software I've
ever licensed. I don't lose my Windows XP 
authorization when i swap out a

CD-ROM drive.
Third, whether you or anyone else thinks it's 
stupid is irrelevant, this
is the way it is. Ranting and stamping your 
foot isn't going to change
First of all, I'm not "ranting" nor am I 
"stamping my foot".  I'm stating my

opinion just as you are stating yours.
If you're questioning why I'm talking about 
it on this list, well, it came

up.  Why are you talking about it?
But more importantly, this is how things get 
changed.  They certainly won't
change if nobody complains. I told FS that I 
found their authorization
scheme unacceptable. I did them a favor in 
doing so.
