Max,
The GUID only needs to be unique for the project. This is unless you want
to expose your interfaces as COM objects. From memory, M$ holds a registry
of GUID prefixes (or is suffix) for different vendor - you are supposed to
be able to request for one. The alternative is to use GUIDGEN and home that
no one else has the same MAC address of your network card.
Regards,
Dennis.
