The creator of the Vista brute force keygen has admitted that it doesn’t work, and that “everyone who said they got a key are probably lying or mistaken!” and that he’d like a job, and not a lawsuit.
The man who cracked Vista, known as ‘Computer User’ at the KezNews.Com Forum, has admitted in a posting entitled “Brute force keygen a phoney” that the keygen doesn’t actually work, even as Microsoft are reported to be investigating the crack to see if it works or not. ‘Computer User’ said that “fact is the brute force keygen is a joke, i never intended for it to work. I have never gotten it to work, everyone should stop using it! everyone who said they got a key is probably lying or mistaken! i suggest everyone uses the 120 day 3x rearm method."
Some commenters at the site have said that the keygen may still work through sheer random luck, but would take a very long time. Some claim you might be lucky enough to chance upon a proper combination, giving some small hope that those who claimed success really did get a key, instead of just pretending they did for the kudos.
A few people seem to perhaps still be hoping against hope that the crack may work, despite some putting days into testing the crack without results, while others hope that the bogus crack might convince others to use the idea to create a version that actually does work as advertised.
Computer User says in the second page of comments that “i beleive the BFkeygen is the worst problem for M$ cause it steals genuine keys. which is why i have stopped all operations. and have created mass confusion”, to which a user called dragger replied: “dude it never worked... any real programmer could have told you. you have no math in it you just use random... with that method you can in theory always be wrong. Also you check for characters taht are banned from theirs. it was funny to see people think it worked.. but its just a matter of time be4 the pawns realize it'll never work... ps if it actually did work why wasn't any keys posted”.
The long and the short of it all is that the guerrilla war that is on between hackers and Microsoft over Vista’s activation and ‘Windows Genuine Advantage’ shows no signs of slowing down, with even the Chinese said to have developed a crack that does something to the BIOS and MBR to stop Windows Vista from activating.
It’s turning into a tit-for-tat war with non-genuine users at risk that Microsoft will be able to de-activate pirate versions without the pirates having enough time to create a fix before seeing a one hour browser session and nothing else.
So, how soon before the next Vista crack is announced, whether hoax or no? Only hackers working on it will know, but all hackers and pirates must know that this is the trickiest activation from Microsoft to crack yet, with the previous ‘blind eye to piracy’ unofficial (?) policy firmly wide open and restored to sight.

never the less with my own experience i dont believe when they windows activation cant be cracked ...
