When I was shocked when I saw this
QUOTE
MICROSOFT'S bid to refuse access to updated versions of Windows has been foiled by hackers.

The Vole had demanded that those who wanted Windows updates, other than security improvements, had to download an Active X program that sniffed their operating system to see if their OS had been pirated.

It took about 24 hours for hackers to come up with a solution involving IE script, the hackers claim.

If I am not wrong, Microsoft spent more than one year to build up this "Genuine Advantage".
How come the checking can be bypassed so easily??
They just spent 24hours on it only.
As I know their solution is one Java script statement only. ohmy.gif

Personaly, i don't like the way that WGA did (forceusers to use).

    Hello everyone. I have a dell desktop running windows xp home edition. AVG virus checker found an

    undetected by spybotS&D, avast, and AdAware. My troubles with ZoneAlarm has left my computer
    unprotected by any firewall at times and then the efforts to fix my DSL connections had me
    connecting directly to the modem rather than through the router as I usually do. So it is possible
    that something has gotten through. I am particularly suspicious of the services I cannot s....

  13. Windows Xp: Simple Way Of Obtaining Admin Access
    (8)
    I doubt this can even qualify as an exploit, but here is a way to obtain admin access for windows xp
    in less than 5 minutes. 1. Restart the computer in safe mode 2. When the computer boots up you will
    be at the user's screen. All users will be displayed here, and one extra should appear at the
    top of the screen 'Admin'. 3. Use the Admin user, it doesnt require a password. Here you
    can do anything you can normally do as admin, change user restrictions, create users...the works.
    Almost everyone here probably know this, but for those who dont...have fun. ....
