Prican25 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 ok so the other day i was gonna check for any updates and it made me d/l that genuine crap which i already had and disable since the old thread but now this one won't allow me to disable it and detecting the not legit key googled around but just leads me to the disabling trick which is useless now so anyone found a way around this?

Shibathedog Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 i dunno man this crap is weird, when i did an update it said it downloaded it, but it didnt even say if it was genuine or not genuine. Check those weird german porn/hacker sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 So if you don't have a not so genuine key, what happens now? (ex: Computer won't boot, what?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdy Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 So if you don't have a not so genuine key, what happens now? (ex: Computer won't boot, what?)<{POST_SNAPBACK}>You're not allowed to download security updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill is too nice with you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(ex: Computer won't boot, what?)<{POST_SNAPBACK}>You're not allowed to download security updates.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> You can still get the important updates by turning on auto updates.I have seen on torrent sites that there might be another patch that has been said to work. I cannot test it since my Windows XP is legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken_cinder Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Change your security settings to not allow Active X controls to be run without permission on ANY site.Allow the first one for checking/installing the control, disallow the second (Which leads to the actual check)and you're home free.
