Feature in Windows 7 allows users to upgrade their already installed operating-system into higher versions letting them bypass limitations associated with lower editions without requiring to reinstall again, with this feature all the user needs to do is to buy an upgrade key from Microsoft online or a local retail and upgrade their OS edition without hassles in less then 10 minutes. The news is that hackers have now cracked open the Windows Anytime Upgrade key generation algorithm for Windows 7 and released the utility ' Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade CD-Key Generator' which churns out illegal upgrade keys allowing pirates to to higher SKU's like from Home Premium to Professional or Ultimate without paying Microsoft a dime. Microsoft will be pushing a new Windows Activation Technologies (WAT) update before end of February for Windows 7 users with a set of anti-piracy measures which would disable more than 70 known used by pirates to activate illegal copies of the software. In an official blog post by Joe Williams, General Manager, Genuine Windows the company announced the new update stating: Activation exploits are sometimes called “hacks”, and attempt to bypass or compromise Windows’ activation technologies.

These are very disturbing figures – especially when considering that resellers may be using these downloads to claim that the PCs they sell include genuine Windows. The update will be marked as “ Important” and will get distributed first to the Home Premium, Professional, Ultimate and Enterprise editions, one thing worth watching here is that what will happen to pirates who have completely removed WAT from there computers using one of the most popular Windows 7 activation hack - what will get updated if the feature is completely removed from the OS?. 121131 reads.
