Hi, I want to reformat my computer because it is running far too slow and freezing constantly, and when I re-install windows the programs that I have paid for such as spybot, norton, office, and others will have keys that won't work because they will say that I've used the keys the maximum times. These are NOT trials. I want to know if there is any way to keep these so I don't have to pay for the license again (a couple hundred dollars)

Your best option is to contact the vendors and explain what has happened.

I'm positive an operating system reinstall doesn't terminate the terms of agreement for most software.

I've linked Spybot and Norton support contact pages:

The others you need will be easy to find if you search for contact option at their home page or Google them.
