Vista Hacked Again, This Time Even More Effectively


This isn't very surprising to me, but a group who calls themselves NoPE have hacked Microsoft's Vista.

And this one is the best yet!!!

It is an out of the box crack as the product appears activated, updates work, and no key needs to be installed. Just like those Corporate versions on Windows XP that didn't need keys to work, and they functioned for years.

I imagine that Microsoft will respond and counter this latest threat. But I'm sure the hackers will be there waiting for them.

Well, the Asian writing on the package should be hint one it's not legit.

I love Asian people; but they seem to be the best pirates, and for every million they pirate, we have to pay higher for the same products every year to help defer the losses due to pirating (Especially the Asian nation Pirates. China's government used to subsidize the pirates!)
