I have two IVF 8 licenses registered in my name, one Standard and one Pro. How do I transfer one of them to someone else in my company?

Write to developer.support@intel.com and provide the details, including the serial number.

Doesn't the serial number change when you buy another year of support? Would it be better to attach the license files to the message?
What's the proper way to uninstall IVF on a Windows XP computer and then reinstall it with the correct license file on another computer? My original installation CD is for IVF 7, but I have upgraded to the most current version of IVF 8.

I don't think the serial number changes when you renew support, but I'll admit that I'm not yet familiar with that aspect of the process. There is no need to attach the license files - we can look you up by the serial number (and retrieve the license file.)
  • Uninstall using Add/Remove Programs.
  • Go into Program FilesCommon FilesIntelLicenses and find the .LIC file with the Intel Fortran license. Give that license file to the new owner and delete it from your PC.
  • The new owner should place the license file in a convenient place on their system and then install the latest full 8.0 kit (which is 8.0.050 at present). If they haven't had their Premier Support account set up, you can download it for them and give it to them.

That should do it.
