Genuine Windows Validation fixed

[un shiza]

Same thing for me, but I think I might have another work around

I'm running Windows 2000 Pro with IE 6.0.2800.1106

Well, I was I'm about to reboot. Hopefully everything goes as planned. If so, I'll post what I did.

Update:
Rebooted and ran the UMPNP vulnerability check and the updates were installed because I'm no longer vulnerable.

Has Microsoft fixed the JavaScript Exploit?

I find it another way but this give you a legit validation code
u have to use 640pid keygen windows xp pro vlk and change the range from 640-0 to 64-0. then make a key and change the key with keyfinder. then go to validation and see what it does. ooo legal ah?
ok the disanvatage is that u have to do it every time u want to update.cuz the 640 old key will come back after u reboot.

Correct me if im wrong, but I think the Genuine Windows Validation is only for XP and not 2000

[news=http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/6255/mssecurity2vk.gif]Seemed to of missed this one, the fix was implemented a few days ago and now requires users to enter a code before being able to download. One can only wonder if the less tech-savvy users will be able to grasp the concept!

theunofficialmicrosoftblog is reporting that Microsoft has updated the Windows Genuine Validation tool to circumvent the hack exposed last week that allowed the system to be bypassed with a snippet of JavaScript code. The Validation is now a two-step process that first generates a code and then has you copy and paste that code to complete the process.

With (a legal) win98SE I had to copy and paste a code I got, when I wanted to download something off their site, less than a week after the genuine valdiation thing had been implemented.

I believe the Windows Genuine Validation tool has been updated again.On my last visit to the site it installed a new tool.The disable add-ons trick with Windows Genuine Validation seems to have been fixed its now unable to be enable and disabled(greyed out)...I'm still able to update fully(legal key )...But I have heard of some people who are having problems.There does seem to be a patch floating around.

yes the manage add on option has been completely disabled, what is the method of getting around this validation process for xp users
