problems for those that appear to have pirated copies.
And what recourse does a person have if this is not the case?
Remember on 4-11 their were 5 hotfixes released 3 of them have caused major
problems because they were poorly written/tested, one of them was so bad
that it required a fix for the fix, did the same person/team write the WGA
update?
Of the 1800 systems you talk about with no problems haw many of them are the
same?
the same make/model vid/sound cards, the same programs installed? you are
talking about a work enviorment are you not? Not a very good cross referance
to the home user who has many other installations installed that would not
be allowed in a work station.
I ordered my computer from Dell 2 years ago,Dell is licensed by MS and given
key codes to install on their computers why do I need to verify that I'm not
pirating XP over and over again? now MS wants to put yet another running
service on my system,just so I can prove to them that I'm not doing
something illegal, I don't think so. Most third party security applications
address an issue long before MS issues a hotfix for it,I'll rely
on them for a time.
