Really? Hmmmm. That exact thing did not work for me.
I have two distinct license files on my two computers
(desktop and laptop). Both have "personal use licenses".
Both are win xp and idl 6.3. Very odd. In fact, I don't want
to go into details, but I have a very specific hardware related
item in my license.

Perhaps they have changed the way they handle personal
use licenses now that ITTVIS is in charge, so one license
does not give "unlimited" use. And perhaps you are
grandfathered in with the old style license.

I have no problem with needing to request a new installation
with the IDL folks, but if i remember correctly, it is limited to
3 total licenses. Which is kind of a bummer since I personally
have 4 computers (2 desktops 2 laptops).

Cheers,
bob
