sp3 bug already

[anon]

Why would you need to activate after installing a

service pack? It is just an upgrade, not a new OS.

i just noticed it doesn't have that for users with
administrator rights. I purposely run as a restricted
user, which is the only place it shows after installing
SP3.

It must have overwritten your hacked WGA to allow your

VLK copy to
work. Busted.

sorry to disappoint you, I'm 100% legit. My company is MS
Select.

this is clearly a SP3 bug -- it shows only with users with
restricted rights, which I run as unless installing
something. And like I said in my original post, running
the activation says I already am. VLK doesn't require
activation to start, only the key.

You still got it from a very unreliable source and you

may have installed a compromised version of the build.

if it's 'compromised,' then by definition MS' digital
signatures don't work. Which is it?

not a bug after all, by design:

normal user...
