That was long before Windows was on the market, as my Dad's been dead
for more than a quarter century.

I've been posting against MS's anti-consumer copy-protection scams since
2001, so I don't see WGA as anything new. It's just more of the same
sh*t, from the World's largest Intellectual Property thief, and
Spy/malware distributor, not to mention that they are also a proven
predatory monopoly on three continents, and still counting!

Don't you think it is about time you "put your money where your ass is" and
stop using Windows XP.

Hell, during the Vietnam War people set themselves aflame to get their point
across.

Why can't you do the same - and give us all some peace, AT LAST?

Why do you care? You really need to flip that bit.

If you have nothing to fear, then you have nothing to fear.

In spite of reports to the contrary -- trust me on this -- no one is
monitoring your bathhouse activity.

Copy-protection is total BS. It doesn't stop piracy, and all it does it
make it harder for the paying customer use the products they buy.

Copy-protection is totally anti-consumer.

LOL! Tell that to all the paying customers that have had various
problems with copy-protection in the products they legally purchased.

home.

One. My main computer won't run any distro of Linux that I've tried.

Two. I do use Linux on my test computer.

Why don't you take responsibility for your own actions, use some
self-control, and stop reading my posts, if that's what you think will
give you some peace?

You have just proven that you don't even have the courage to back up your
convictions. What a pathetic loser you are!

I "can't" run Linux the loser and whiner says. So he keeps on using Windows,
and god only knows how many other Microsoft products.

The fact is that he is not intelligent enough to learn Linux.

Sooo, he keeps on using Windows, as he has done for the past 5+ years and
rails about how bad it is.

How about going out to Redmond, Washington - planting yourself in front of
the Microsoft campus and make a real statement - one that will get their
attention and make the national news. Because you're a whimp - that's why.
You haven't got the guts to force anything in person. You attack with venom,
when you can hide inside the web.

Get yourself arrested proving your point. Then, maybe, I and others will
take what you rattle on about a bit more seriously. Seriously maim yourself
with fire and I will really take notice - for about 30 seconds!

But until then, you are, and have always been, a pathetic loser - a gutless
wonder - and the consumate whiner!

I've seen you say that before - I have always had a question in my mind
about that...

Can it run (*nix) in a virtual PC on your computer?

I know it doesn't really help in this 'discussion' - but just curious. heh

Yeah, but he's not a top-posting putz.

Why don't you address the issue, instead of addressing Kurt? All the ad
hominem in the world doesn't make a single coherent argument.

It just makes you sound like you haven't any real content to offer.

I think those Sirius commercials about not monitoring what you listen to, and
not manipulating the playlists of the station you are listening to, (to fit your
concurrent lifestyle), are completely bogus. OF COURSE THEY ARE PEEPING WHILE
YOU'RE POOPING! You heard it there first, on the radio!
 
The facts in this group also show it's not always working correctly. Many
people that have legitimate software are getting false reports.

It would be nice to know at some stage in the future, how much additional
income MS gets from the sale of many thousands of genuine OS. Or even the
numbers of those who go genuine.
I had a dream last night that MS announced that because of the increase in
these sales they were now able to a offer vista{for those who need it} at a
'DISCOUNT'.
I later woke and realised I had had a nightmare :-) :-)

Or using system restore to go back before the MS spyware. Or
reinstalling Windows. Or reading this and other newsgroups and not
downloading the spyware.

The crack for this spyware has been out for over a week. Normal
uninstall programs will uninstall it. Soooo, you are wrong (again).

Now this newsgroup has provided us with proof that WGA not only is in
BETA but sometimes will not install on people's computer or, worse, tell
a legit owner that his copy is pirated when it wasn't. What's even worse
is that MS knew it was in BETA and knew it could screw up Otherwise, why
did they write a program to fix the fix that Carey copies and pastes at
least ten times a day?

This fiasco of MS will not stop piracy. It has angered millions of legit
users and will only serve to convince people to take the Linux learning
curve or buy a MAC.

And the vast majority of the issues I've seen are pirated copies being
detected and people complaining they didn't know. I've seen very few
cases where a legit copy was improperly flagged as pirated. So, I would
say, like most software, it's working very well.

Due to the way that so many people have their systems hacked together,
so many fixes, virus patched systems, etc... not to mention all the key-
gen installations, other malware, etc... it would not surprise me that
there are false positives, but they are much fewer, magnitudes than the
correctly identified pirated copies.
