The article you have linked to is about piracy in Malaysia, and that the Malaysia and USA governments are trying to sort out new legal terms / courts to try and solve the problem.
I saw no mention of automatic software installation to identify pirated copies of Windows. _________________ Olly |

Microsoft also announced on April 24 that the company is adding a new piece to its WGA enforcement strategy. Microsoft is adding a new notification facility to WGA, so that Windows XP users who are running a "non-genuine" copy of Windows XP will have notifications sent directly to their desktop warning them they are running pirated software.
Microsoft rolled out a pilot of the notifications component in Norway and Sweden in November 2005. In February 2006, Microsoft added five additional countries to the pilot. As of Monday, Microsoft added the U.S., United Kingdom, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand to the notifications pilot.
Microsoft officials did not offer a date for when it plans to move from the pilot to the mandatory phase for the WGA notifications faciilty.

Bottom of the page. Sounds like all it is going to be is an annoying popup helpfully warning you that you might have been tricked into installing a pirated copy of the OS. I still don't understand what Chewzzqq was actually trying to ask about it though. Or what the hell they say generally :/ _________________

But I think I might..
chewzzqq, it is genrally against the law to even think about burning Windows.
BUT everyone does it and that is why Microsoft won't ever do anything about it unless they can actually stop you from doing so. |
