Keycode

If the keycode is accepted but not remembered then one of two different things has happened:
1. The keycode can not be saved properly
2. The keycode can not be read back in properly

There are two things that typically cause this problem:
1. A permissions problem on the folder holding the prefs
2. The prefs file is corrupt

It is a good idea to toss all 3 (yes three) prefs files then empty the trash and re-run the application in this sort of problem.
/Library/Preferences/com.prolific.ScreenSaver.Aquarium2.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.Prolific.SereneScene.MarineAquarium2.applicati on.plist
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.prolific.ScreenSaver.Aquarium2.xxx.plist

~ means your home directory
xxx means some number of digits

If this doesn't solve the problem then we need to investigate the permissions on your preferences folders.
