SP1 Unsuccessful in Preventing Vista Hacks

[RCuber]

Its just the activation crack and nothing related to security of vista. if the activation is cracked, the pirates will be happy cause they can install vista instead of L!n

hmmm...this is a big prob security ppl..neways has neone tried the Windows XP SP3

 

[NucleusKore]

Ah! I m so waiting to get back to Home & kick the arse of ignorant fanboys

The article is about making cracking Windows Vista activation, which we all know [size=+1]isn't that hard[/size].

Why? Why does Microsoft not want to make it "that hard"? Are they DUMB? I don't think so, its deliberate.

^^no dude its not deliberate . Consider all the non-microsoft software that is cracked all the time and freely available on warez sites..

Nope, they are not dumb. There isn't much money left in selling an OS now...the money is in services which comes in the form of Windows Live. MS would rather prefer a user using Vista pirated with paid services from MS instead of switching to Linux....

business dude, Linux may know how to polish a tard & release it to the market, but MS know how to make money out of it by recycling the tard into some thing good

 

[CadCrazy]

no probs for me.
i've added the OEM SLIC info into my mobo's bios.so i'm in no danger.

I always prefer software based emulation.Bios se ched char karna bhut dangerous hai

 

[infra_red_dude]

^^^ In fact adding oem slic is the most fool-proof way and future proof too!

Rightly Said Saurav! This is something that only some people understand

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^lol,you mean change the course and use unethical means when you see that the end is near?

google pwns\and will continue to pwn M$ on web front and as you guys said there isn't much money left in OS department(linux being free and more than competitive).

SO here's a two way strategy used by M$:
1.Acquire Yahoo(its gonna happen,one way or another) and then 'try' to challenge Google.This is just not gonna happen,google is unbeatable.

2.Why stop vista piracy?it increases the user base.SO they are not gonna do anything special about it(all the efforts are futile anyway).On the contrary it will stop,to an extent, people from migrating to Linux.


I say this is what I would have done had I been running M$,no other way left.

 

[gxsaurav]

I don't want to type much here as it is tough to type in phone...but still.

google pwns\and will continue to pwn M$ on web front

Ya, I agree....Orkut does pwns anything similar MS has to offer....

Google talk???? oh wait...no webcam, blocked in various places etc etc..google docs is tooo inferior...ya, google is on top (from the bottom)

and as you guys said there isn't much money left in OS department(linux being free and more than competitive).

Free, yes. More then competitive in desktop department...ya in your world only.

the money is in services which comes in the form of Windows Live. MS would rather prefer a user using Vista pirated with paid services from MS

just curious, but which windows live services are these from which MS can earn even from pirated vista's??

^^ LOL Even SP1 isn't released to public. It's available only for RTM right now!
