New WGA In Vista SP1

A new version of Windows Genuine Advantage will be included in the first service pack for Windows Vista according to several reports from different tech websites.

The new changes includes reminding the user to buy a legitimate version for every hour which comes from a bubble in the desktop and the wallpaper of the desktop will also turn to black.

Microsoft mentioned that they fixed two holes which allowed pirates to create fake copies.

The first service pack for Vista will be released in the first few months of 2008.

You know pirates are always going to find a hole around some of these DRM protection and program protection. I know they have the right to but isn’t to much protection a bad thing. Let’s consider the Bad things, shall we?

  • Slows System down
  • BSOD
  • Programs don’t work properly
  • WGA might make legit copies bad?
  • Windows will become even more unstable!

So what part of Microsoft thinks this is a good thing. I do not!! I know it will make Vista even more unusable with all this protection!!
