Windows XP SP2 Won't Install on Pirated Copies?

Posted by: Newsfactory on: 05/18/2004 03:14 AM [ Print | 3 comment(s) ] · 6911 views

If Vnunet.com are right it now seems that Microsoft will only block the 20 most-copied Windows XP licenses.



But with the company blocking only these discs, some users of pirate copies will still be able to download the service pack.

it's not like various news sites (here, neowin etc) havn't allready reported the availability of homemade keys though is it, i understand MS bothering, i just dont understand why so many sites are treating all this will they/won't they rubbish as news every other day.

Maybe I`m just stupid, but I don´t understand your comment. I´ve read it over and over again, but I just don´t get it. Is it translated through Google or something like that?

lol, i understood his post perfectly, and i gotta agree, its not really news that MS is coming out with yet another product update geared toward their current os.. and boasting about blacklisting keys,

now when MS has the hardware mfg's roll out palladium this stuff willl be newsworthy again, till then.. its just fluff imo.
