Diff Between original and pirated windows

[CadCrazy]

I want to know what is diff between original and pirated windows CD. Its just the serial no or something else

 

[Sparsh007]

u dont get updates,security patches which make yr computer vulnerable to virus,trojans etc.etc

 

[Lucky_star]

Original comes in some thousand bucks while pirated is available for some 50-100 rupees only...

And you won't get patches and customer support direct from microsoft.
Rest there is none. Moreover you can have the satisfaction of a Genuine user for making Billy happy.

 

[Sukhdeep Singh]

Not much difference actually.

Updates are still availble though but you wont get official Microsoft support but you should buy Genuine Windows since we are not here to promote piracy

Oh just noticed

diff between original and pirated windows CD.

In that case, Original one is supposed to come in better packing and better print on CD with Serial Number on the BOX

any other differences like prone to spywares, viruses, or system crash even after full patched.

No difference except Official MS support

 

[~Phenom~]

System is more stable. I can't guarantee regarding spywares becoz it depends upon your security suite. Use a good security suite like Kaspersky Antivirus, ZoneAlarm Firewall with AntiSpyware and Windows Defender/Spybot.

System is more stable.

How could u say this ???

Did u forget "Blue Screen of Death" ??? It comes even u have GENUINE copy of Windows !

 

[abhasbajpai]

no difference, system security is up to you, and if you patch your system is like genuine
but
please buy windows at the price uncle bill wants to make him more richer

I said System is more stable. I didn't say that BSOD will be wiped out totally. It depends upon the way you handle Windows.

well i have been using windows xp for a long and have just come to know that its a pirated (after WGA varification) and i havent have any prob till now

regarding u r question yes its just the serial no that is different .In pirated version u will not be asked to activate it and there will be no time bomb

its a marketing strategy of MS to showcase that pirated version lacks security packages etc etc .
note: to the best of my knoeledge and I DONT want to spread piracy.

i will be shifting to linux soon or will get a original xp soon
