What would cause the Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool to be
installed every time Windows Update runs? I have at /least/ a dozen
workstations on one network that require it every "Update Tuesday"
before the real updates will download. And multiple single user computers.

Thanks,

Your ignorance.

Yeah, heaven forbid that the scammy and useless WGA/N should be
discussed on Usenet and listed by Google for posterity and how it proves
that Microsoft holds all their paying customers in total disdain.

The cocaine, prostitution, arms and kiddie porn trade is good business
too and those business don't have much love for their paying customers
either. In fact they make more money than Microsoft so you were saying?

Now can you address my point or only come up with some other lame
defense of Microsoft?
