Tampering with Vista is risky business. See, before Vista, when you bought Windows, that copy of Windows was YOURS and you could monkey with it all you wanted, as long as you didn't publish anything that broke copyrights or patents and such. With Vista, you're buying a LICENSE, or simply the right to use the product, rather than the product itself. Because of this change, tampering with Vista breaks the ULA and could get you into trouble, especially with the constant communication Vista does with Microsoft.
