installation key harvesting program

So at my job I have to reinstall Windows a lot on random PC's. These PC's tend to have a lot of the same software, sometimes with the same volume key, sometimes with it's own key. There are a lot of license agreements that we have, so I would like to reinstall all the other software with the keys that were used in the original install. I thought I read about a program here that can pull keys out of exsisting installs, but I can't seem to find it. Anyone have a good one?

Just to be clear, this isn't for nefarious purposes. Records weren't kept very well here, and while I know that we have enough licenses for a given piece of software (i.e.- we have 100 computers with Office on them, and we have a 50 license key, and 20 licence key, another 20 license key, a 5 license key, and 5 one use keys), I don't want to end up having 30 machines using a key that should only be good for 20 because we have a 50 license key with only 40 installs on it.

I just got a 3DS XL. Add me! 2879-0925-7162

    You want the Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder. I recommend the version 2 beta, which allows you to add in registry locations to a config file so that it can find more than just the usual ones.

    I don't believe it - I'm on my THIRD PS3, and my FIRST XBOX360. What the heck?
