i was on the downloads section of microsoft.com and it wanted me to download some tool to validate my copy of windows. i found a few ways to get around it but i dont think i did it right or they are just out of date. i tried greasemonkey, trixie, and some tool that i ran in windows 2000 mode. has anybody gotten this to work?

This is just a bypass not a crack or a hack

Problems with the Windows Genuine Advantage check?
Dont need the hassle?

Well Microsoft made the check as an add-on so heres how you disable it Wink

Goto Tools > Manage Add-ons..

Select "Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer" from the dropdown menu
Now find the "Windows Genuine Advantage" Add-on and disable it

Restart IE

Now goto Windows Update and get your updates

Yeah it seems to easy but it worked for me[/quote42a0c69255]
