Latest windows XP updates first offered to install a windows verification
tool, in the agreement it says this is optional. Additionally in the
agreement they tell me that installing their memory and cpu hogging
verification application is for my benefit, I disagree, I already know my
copy of windows is genuine it has hologram and everything supplied by
sony, I use my machine for real time (audio) applications so do not want
their memory and cpu hogging applications installed.

why is this application memory and CPU hogging?

Deciding if your version of XP is genuine is a once only
task, there is no reason that this program will reside
in memory once it has been run.
