Vista SP1 kills the WGA kill switch

[patelpk]

And why does anyone need to "hack" into this? All it does is sit in the tray and notify the user about non-legit copy of windows. With simple changes the notification can be turned off!

Hmmm... I dunno why but I think MS is feeling the heat of slowly losing its loyalists to Mac and OSS! First WGA-less IE7, now this... next what, MS?

Oops i thought its about stopping the currently working cracks

The OS Vista is good for those people who buy the Genuine DVD and have the good system requrement for the Vista in Desktop Computer or Lapto. I use genuine Vista and its run good in my computer. I dont face any problem with Vista. People like @.......( edited ) or others who use Pirate CD or DVD can't run Vists in smooth way. They allwase face some problem to run this operating system and this is the deference between Genuine CD or DVD and Pirate CD or DVD.

I have paid for Vista so everybody should pay for Vista to enjoy it fully.

Even I thought similarly before buying a 1 GB RAM module .

For those who are going to say see you have to upgrade-
Well its a well known fact that Vista has higher hardware requirements. And till date I had no problems with Vista, never had a BSOD, no critical errors. No problems at all.
And I am not a MS fanboy

I know you have a big personal grudge against me for absurd reasons of yours but it doesn't make me irresponsible as much as you've been by me forgetting to mention the source.

You could have rather just asked where is the source rather than flaming.

post has been updated with source

I don't want any personal Grudges of whatever.Let's just keep it cool.
U walk your way i'll mine.

 

[infra_red_dude]

Cool it guys

Vista won't kill WGA?? Hmmm.. back to square one?!

 

[iMav]

^^ its being said to be 1 of the biggest reasons why 1 should upgrade to sp1

 

[infra_red_dude]

^^^ huh? Didn't get you. If WGA is not killed then how is it different from original retail?

 

[iMav]

there is no news of wga not being killed as far as words from MS are concerned it is being done away with

cyrus could u please link us coz i did not find anything on click's site (i dont know how keywords or adwords work u seem to know them better )

and infra do u think that if they decided a flip-flop the internet would have no trace of it .... MS execs have themselves said that no more crippling or restriction mode of vista only a pop-up

 

[infra_red_dude]

Yeah thats what I wanted to know. Even I couldn't find anything that they went back as far as killing WGA is concerned. Cyrus, could you post the link?

 

[Cyrus_the_virus]

Hmmmm... I guess all the posts here has led to a bit of confusion *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/2.gif

Ok, I hope we all got this right, I'll just repeat it to make sure I got it right:

> "Killing the WGA Kill switch" and "Killing the WGA switch" are 2 completely different things.

Maybe I got it wrong but what I meant to say was that MS is going to stop disabling pirated Vista which I guess is what the thread is all about.

*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/actions1.gif My bad if I had created any confusion

However, to clarify what I said, just go to bbc.co.uk/click and watch the streaming show for this week. The news is between 07:27 - 07:57 mins.

there is no news of wga not being killed as far as words from MS are concerned it is being done away with

Even I couldn't find anything that they went back as far as killing WGA is concerned

See, I guess this is where the confusion is, MS is not disabling WGA, MS is disabling the WGA kill switch.
