4) Putting an encryption key in the registry decreases security, since it's wholly easier to read a registry key than to read process memory (and to know exactly what memory to read, you must read the code to find out where that encryption key is stored)

ok, please take a look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Westwood\Renegade, there is a value called 'Serial' which contain your Renegade cd key in encrypted form. Steal this string and put it in your own PC's registry makes you own the key.

Have you actually tried doing that? Because I actually know what I'm talking about when I say that doing only that will result in a different (and most likely invalid) key.
