If you ring Microsoft to activate and you mysteriously have it installed but no licence they will take your credit card and sell you a licence. On XP at least if the Internet can't connect (disconnect it) it asks you your Country and gives you a phone number.

The person I spoke to at 3am seemed like a human. I was re-installing a computer where the Mobo had burnt out and it wouldn't validate (activated too many times it said online). The guy listened to my story, asked questions and gave a free activation key.
