3094 - Is there a fix for office 2003 reactivate?

[S_Watts]

Everytime that I switch between parallels and boot camp, it requires me to reactviate office 2003 even if I do not use it within the parallels boot-up. Windows XP works fine without reactivating.

Is there a work around?

Parallels - 3094 Beta 2
FAT32 partition
Macbook Pro 2.33GHz
Windows XP
Mac OS X

I am getting the same with both Office and Quicken - on beta 3 as well.

The only work around i can think of is getting hold of,and using a "cracked" copy until the bug you talk about gets fixed.
It's not perfect by any means, but you HAVE paid to use the software - so it's definitley justified.
I used a cracked copy of XP, when i first started using paralells, just so i could play around with the VM config until i found settings that worked for me, without crapping out my genuine XP's key.

It would be nice if they at least acknowledged this post as something they know about.
