I was a beta tester for Windows Vista SP1. When I installed the last update I
thought it would remove the notice on the lower right corner of the monitor
that reads "Windows Vista (TM) Evaluation Copy. Build 6001". To my surprise,
the notice remind on the screen. My Vista is not an evaluation copy. What was
evaluation (while in beta) was the SP1.

Any idea how to remove this? Thanks
