Micr0soft "Genuine Advantage" Anti-Cracker Cracked

Web blog ‘Boing Boing’ is reporting that less than 24 hours after it’s release, Windows Genuine Advantage has been “cracked” by a simple javascript exploit.

AV sez, “This week, Micr0soft started requiring users to verifiy their serial number before using Windows Update. This effort to force users to either buy XP or tell them where you got the illegal copy is called ‘Genuine Advantage.’ It was cracked within 24 hours.”

Several sites are already displaying this workaround.

*haha Microsoft got owned *

yep the js spl0it apparently worked for some. did u try it on a non-legit copy of winbl0ws?

they also came up with a “work around” for WGA, a cracked .dll ph1l3 that helps you bypass winbl0ws validation check when you go to Windows Update. This should come in handt for most peeps in the .pk region :clown:

^yah, the js works....
also, i heard it could be as simple as disabling the GA addon in IE..

Re: Micr0soft "Genuine Advantage" Anti-Cracker Cracked

I appled the GA patch and it just took a few minutes. My system runs just fine and there are some new softwares which I can download.

Re: Micr0soft "Genuine Advantage" Anti-Cracker Cracked

hmmm many tech forums suggested doing this before the express and custom install option when downloading updates:

javascript:void(window.g_sDisableWGACheck='all')

i also had the genuinecheck.exe file to patch the key but somehow, the validation key doesnt dload on your pc anymore and with just one click, seedha seedha batata hai ke laanti jaali kopy istemaal kar re ho.

anybody had the same trouble validating?
