Windows 7 SP1 Leaks on Torrents; is Version 7601
April 7, 2010 by Marcus Yam

" Early builds of Windows 7 SP1 bump version numbers to 7601.

The release of the first Service Pack for Windows 7 in an inevitability. Microsoft has already spoken publicly about Windows 7 SP1, stating that it will be coming but it won't be packed full of changes that can't already be had from Windows Update.

Now the first real glimpse of SP1 is here as an early version of the software package has leaked into the internet's various P2P avenues. The build string of the leaked version is "6.1.7601.16537.amd64fre.win7.100327-0053" which indicates that it's a build from March 27.

GeekSmack has acquired a copy and grabbed a number of screenshots and reported that installation is drastically faster than the install process for any of the Service Packs for Windows Vista.

Of course, we don't recommend anyone to download Windows-critical software that doesn't come from Microsoft. Find it and try it at your own risk, and never on a primary-use computer.

You won't see me download a leaked Service Pack for Shitdows. All Windows are a pile of insecure pos until the first Service Pack is out.

I generally like 7, but still has a couple of problems where it tries to be too "smart". Hope sp1 is better

I've just upgraded to win 7 thinking it was going to be a pleasure,how wrong i was, drivers are still an issue with it to me,my m-audio gave me a bsod and so did my bluetooth of all things, I do like the whistles and bells but they have all been ripped off from linux, It looks a lot like beryl but without the multiple desktops fx. I'll have another play with it next week and see if i can stabilise it.
