Microsoft to nag pirate WinXP users
Those people who use illegally obtained ("pirated") copies of WinXP can expect to be nagged by Microsoft until they respond to the nags if they install the Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications application. At the present time, if one updates manually, one can choose not to install the application. However, the application will be installed automatically for those who choose to allow Windows to update automatically
I wonder how many people who thought they had legal copies of WinXP will find out that their copy is actually pirated. Only time will tell.
