WinXP protection: it's the .NET, stupid | |
|
||
| Time: 10:04 EST/15:04 GMT | News Source: The Register | Posted By: Zeb | ||
|
In the past few days another WinXP build, 2474, has leaked out onto IRC, and this time it's acquired an "RC1" tag. Numerous claims have been made that Microsoft's latest protection for product activation has been cracked. According to The Register's sources, however, this is not true - they insist that the current alleged cracks are simply a case of the crackers having managed to confuse themselves. But actually, as that product was already activated by the few people who used the escaped key before Microsoft slammed the door on it, the hooky copies people are using it on now will cease to function 14 days after they try. | ||
