Also, if you have a Dell Inspiron 8100, this is a known issue. Post back

Not a Dell, but now we are sure it is genuine.
We have found a SP2 Home and Pro "Hack" on the desktop. The reseller copied
his key generator onto the desktop and basically incriminated himself. He
charged $100 FOR XP Home, and provided no CD or COA. We called him out on
it, and he claims to have "forgotten" to provide it at time of sale. Issue
resolved.

Whoa. I'm glad you got it resolved but sorry you had to go through this.
Thanks for taking the time to let us know.
