  3 Hours to Come Up with a Crack for Vista Validation Update
Time: 00:08 EST/05:08 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Have you ever wondered how much does it take to develop a crack or a workaround to the security features in Windows Vista? Well it took Microsoft five years to complete the operating

system. So it takes a hacker just 3 (read' em TRHEE) hours to crack one of the Windows Vista validation proceses. That makes sense, doesn't it now?

The past week, when taking on the “frankenbuild” Windows Vista activation workaround, Microsoft applauded the release of an update to the Vista Validation process in order to render inoperable the operating systems activated with the “frankenbuild” crack.

Windows vista Validation update KB929391 has produced a small impact, but has generated some Brownian motion in the pirate community. As early as this morning I have reported that a crack for the Vista Validation Update was already available. You can read details about this, and even have access to the Windows Vista Validation update crack via this link.

At the time of this article, the initial crack has been joined by an alternative. As I mentioned in the other article, these are not actually cracks but workarounds, in the sense that they reveal the process to bypass the Vista Validation update introduced by Microsoft.
