I don't think so. By just buying the software you can distribute the files it produces. (it's like if you'd have to pay some extra money to distribute the programs made with Visual Studio.)

that's a field of additional information in wav files. you can choose to fill it or not (using SoundForge or any other sound editor tool)

in that case the employee is still idiot because he should have registered it using Microsoft as name/nick, not Deepz0ne.

in that case, the employee should work with legal programs (ie: not cracked). IMO, if an employee wants to work @ home, M$ should provide him the needed tools to work in the same way s/he would do in the company.
