not confirmed!
when the same version of vmware is run here (2.0.4 build-1142) it puts a
vmware-log.user in the /tmp but it's chmod is 644 ...
the licensekey is in this file but the hash isn't!
but... stealing another users license is easy...
the license2.0 file in the home directory is 644 too and ~/.vmware dir is
755 ...
