don't rip-off a key - you run the risk of getting caught and you hurt the software community - ripping games is like shoplifting.
Instead, try this -
Call Microsoft or Bungie or Gearbox - whoever does tech support for Halo for PC - I don't have the game in front me, sorry
Explain your situation, and ask for a new key - now, take notice because this part is important - on the inside part of MOST CDs, there is a serial # and barcode imprinted kinda holographically - if you give them that # - they should be cool with giving you another key. Of course, your dated reciept would always be a sure-bet too.
And again, if someone is willing to give you their key - that's cool, just make sure whatever you do that its legit.
