No, I think he's asking for something that will intercept the UDP (I 
believe it's UDP) packets that XP sends back to Redmond informing them 
of what's on your machine, license #'s, etc.

I haven't heard of a project that does that, Bug, but I'd be very 
interested in hearing what you find for a solution, if you do.
