Digger,

I wrote my own PAP2 unlock instructions based on your posts, but mine are a bit different. Could you please proof read my instructions and tell me if I am missing anything? I will be performing the unlock process at someone else's home (they have XP, I don't). I would like to complete the unlock process in one visit, so that I don't have to drive to their house and restore their PC settings more than once.

Others may benefit because, all the instructions will be compiled in this one post.
