plants vs zombies registration (wine)

Has anybody had any luck with the PlantsVsZombies registration on linux?
The demo of the game runs very well in wine, so I bought the game. But I haven't figured out how to register it.

Launching the registration from ingame doesn't work, using firefox in wine doesn't either, and registering it within a windows VM gives me an invalid code.

Before I contact them by email, has anybody figured out a way to do this?

I guess the author can answer more precisely to you Is it work on windows or ubuntu/sushe livecd ? Or in chakra livecd e.g. ?

Received the following response per mail:

Hello,
Thank you for contacting PopCap Games Customer Support. We hope the following information will be of help to you.
Unfortunately, the registration process is what often prevents Linux users from being able to purchase PopCap Games products. We will be happy to refund your order if the alternative registration method below does not help.

Quite decent actually, although I was hoping for a way to register successfully on linux (alternative registration methods didn't work).

Downloaded a cracked copy, works great in wine.

I guess pirating a game I already bought is ok .. isn't it?

Well technically thats not pirating; you just downloaded a game that you own.
