How many people didn't open Poser before they installed V4?

I know I've not run it a few days. Then V4 arrives, I install, and naturally run it.
BOOM. Error shows up.

I also think it's the updates. Too many people here are reporting that it stopped when they unticked it.

I have preordered P7. Who else of those who are getting the error have done that?

(And btw - I don't think it's a serial check. Simply because it is illegal to do this without permission. They'd be sniffing personal information. Regardless of whether it's their software or not. That's why with MS you have to agree to verify/authenticate.)
