  1. Comment - Adobe, Kaspersky warn of botnet worm spreading via social networks

    If people are dumb enough to use utterly pointless sites like these "social networking" thingamabobs, then they deserve to get stuff like this.

  2. Comment - Windows Piracy Check Now Mandatory

    No, you are STILL wrong. Tried and true generated VLK numbers that fully work with SP2 do *NOT* pass the latest WGA check. While they worked with some early WGA checks in the past, the latest version that is accessed by going to the WGA "offers" page will fail every time simply stating that the number has not been issued by Microsoft.

    Accessing other WGA stuff directly seems to still work just fine though. It's almost as if there are two different versions of WGA working on MS's site.

    VLK numbers that have been actually issued by Microsoft are the only ones that will work now. Valid generated keys will fail now since they have not been actually issued to any company.

    Wrong. Not only does it check to see if the VLK is valid or not, it now also checks to see if it was ever even issued by Microsoft to begin with.
