So do I, actually. The CDKey gets dumped into the Starcraft.mpq file. Problem is that the file is encoded. Even after using some MPQViewer programs you still can't see the CDKey listing. When Battle.net loads it decodes this file, and that's when the above program I listed has a chance to see it.

Now, I agree though, call tech support. They might actually be able to give you your key. B.net support is able to read your key when you log onto Battlenet, and you might get a nice enough techie to help you out, and if not they may give you a new key if you can prove you own the originals.

If that fails, go buy a new copy. The game is dirt cheap now.. and I do mean DIRT CHEAP, so it's not too hard on the wallet to replace it.
