I'm not sure how often the keys change (once a week, once a fortnight?), but when they do, it is normally taken care of by the autoupdate software in the box. However, a few months ago (around April I think) VM managed to somehow bugger up the autoupdate software in the dodgy boxes so that they received incorrect keys, while legit boxes worked normally.
This meant that until someone produced a patch file, the dodgy boxes had to be updated manually every time the keys changed. I think it only took a couple of days until a fix was available.
It looks like VM have used the same method again today.
