Windows 7 activation already cracked with OEM volume license key

That's only step one, of course. Without a valid key to activate your copy, you're dead in the water eventually.
However, just as it happened with Windows Vista, there's already been a Windows 7 crack created utilizing a major OEM's volume license pre-activation key. Instead of Dell, this time the key in question belongs to Lenovo. The key and OEM certificate were simply extracted from the Windows 7 Ultimate .wim files.
Reports from various other sites and forums indicate that the crack will only work for Windows 7 Ultimate, though both 32 and 64 bit versions can be cracked. What about Genuine Advantage? Passed with flying colors. That doesn't mean Microsoft will never sort this out, but I have my doubts - it was never blocked with Vista.
We're not linking to the actual crack or any of the proof-of-concept posts, of course, so don't ask. If you're already running the RTM, you'll be able to figure things out for yourself anyway.

That sounded bad lol. Either way, the above discussion is silly and based false grounds. The guy who actually pays for a legal copy of windows 7 has all right legally to download a pirated copy or whatever since he already owns the user rights of one copy. It's in that case fully legal just as it is to maintain multiple copies of your bought music cd's and dvd's. As long as you don't share them which he didn't imply in any way.

Cody W:
from the Longman dictionary:
steal
[intransitive and transitive]SCC to take something that belongs to someone else
just in case you can't understand the nuances of the word.

nuance this.
Take = Take...
Copy is not the same.
See the nuances? Of course illegal copies are illegal but since we're obviously discussing words i have to point that out.
'Take' means you're actually taking something, removing it from someone in this case. Then the 'someone' don't have it anymore since you've taken it!
Voila, with copies everybody gets to taste the sweet cherry pie and it's still there :) Yay

This argument doesn't hold. I know you people just refuse to be convinced because you're selfish, but ...
copyright=right to copy. If I own the copyright, you have no right to copy. That's what the law says, plain and simple. Just because you can doesn't mean you have the right.

With XP activation, all you have to do is copy the wpa.dbl and wpa.bak if there is one. Re install XP, boot into safe mode, go to Windows/system32 folder, change the name of the wpa.dbl file to wpa.old and wpa.bak to wpa.bakold, and them copy the saved files from the previous installation to that folder. Voila! You are now activated.
