someone who i know bought s1 said he has "3 keys" does this mean that he can use lfs liscence on 3 pcs only for eg lanparty or is he allowed to give anyone a key to play lfs but only 3 or 2 times?

thx..

Edit: Actually, he can do what he wants with the unlocks, as long as he doesn't break the rules below.

Quote from LiveforSpeed.net :

3. Unlock Rules and Regulations
3.1 You may install S1 or S2 on 2 computers for your own use or to race a friend on a Local Network.
3.2 You will initially be able to unlock LFS S2 or later versions 3 times. This allows you to unlock on two computers and keep one spare unlock.
3.3 We recognise that people may buy a new computer or reinstall their operating system from time to time. For this reason, we will automatically give you an extra spare unlock every first day of the month, up to a maximum of 2 spare unlocks available. The number of unlocks you have left can be found on your status page.
3.4 You must not give your username, WEB or GAME password to other LFS users.

thx for the reply,still slightly confused ^^, so does this mean that say for eg I buy s1 am I allowed to give my spare remaining keys to a guy from another country to have so he can play s1 or is this against the rules?

You may use the second key to have a LFS-LAN-party with a friend.
But anything beyond this is forbidden.

And a small note: Once the person you give your key to goes online your old key becomes invalid. So this isn't an option.
