Windows Vista crack is actually a trojan?

Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversMalware makers are starting to take advantage of the number of users searching for cracks for the pirated copies of Vista floating around.
A new download has started circulating around the crack boards called "Windows Vista All Versions Activation 21.11.06". It purports to be an activation crack for any version of Vista.
However, the file is actually a trojan-carrier which will install Trojan-PSW.Win32.LdPinch.aze onto your PC.
BitTorrent users who posted reviews of the crack said that a number of antivirus programs detected the malware, though Norton AntiVirus and NOD32 did not.
In an interview about the Windows Vista installation process, and the ease with which administrators can pre-install software into a Vista install DVD, Microsoft Australia's John Pritchard warned that pirated copies of Vista could easily come with malware preinstalled.
"I would certainly recommend when people are looking at any content they make sure they have the approved and hologrammed DVDs to make sure they’re dealing with the genuine product, to get away from not knowing where the source comes from. If they have control of the unattended installation and built it themselves then hopefully they know what they are putting on it."

a trojan! no way! who would think someone would be doing this? wake up people! of course they are trojans. its
obviously to soon for a working crack to be on the information highway! dont you think microsoft might be just
kicking back and watching and seeing what people putting on the net. how do you think software security
companies work. they hack systems to find soft spots and fix them. same with software but they let the public
do it for them. then it save them money because they dont have to spent millions to hire or do it themselves.
grow-up!!!
ummm...yeah right!whatever!
