Q u o t e:
so as long as i have an updated copy of game installed - she logs in with the user and pass she creates with blizzard its all good. there is no checking to see if the actual copy of game being used is auth, just auth the person playing?
Authentication keys are used solely to upgrade an account; these keys are not used a CD-Keys required to play the game client. Once created, an account can be accessed from any computer that has the World of Warcraft installed no matter who installed the game on that particular machine. Please feel free to install the game using your CDs/DVDs, friend -- in fact, you'll notice that you will not be prompted for a CD-Key during the installation process. Once your wife has created her account, she'll be able to log into the game without issue. :)
