And the Redmond Company has chosen to keep those statistics to itself. But when it comes to Windows Vista, Microsoft has integrated anti-piracy methods into the architecture of the operating system itself. Pirated copies of Vista will suffer a forced transition to Reduced Functionality Mode, making the non-genuine operating system unusable.

And while we are on the subject of interpreting WGA signs... Cori Hartje, director of the Microsoft Genuine Software Initiative, following the business availability of Windows Vista, eight days later to be more exact, was able to buy dirt cheap counterfeit copies of the platform in South America. Microsoft interpreted the fact that bootleggers had become aware of the WGA as a positive proof of the anti-piracy mechanism's result.

But what Microsoft won't talk about is the failures of the Windows Genuine Advantage to protect Windows Vista from being pirated. However, there is more than ample proof of that on peer-to-peer networks. And one instance that delivers legitimacy to the failure of Microsoft's anti-piracy mechanism is a top with the best rated Windows Vista cracks available.

Illegal methods to circumvent Vista's activation process are even catalogued according to behavior categories. There are Bypass Activation Cracks, Cracks that activate, OEM Activations and Key Generators. If you ask me, these examples could be the start of an encyclopedic effort to exhaustively rate and review Windows Vista cracks.

"Rating 10/10, will always work no matter what. This isn’t a crack, but this is what I personally use. Check your manufacturer’s website to see if they have a bios update for your computer. Be careful that you’re sure that its for your computer, because if its not, chances are you’re screwed. Download the latest bios update, if its dated after vista was released (1-30-07), and hopefully it willl have a slic table. You are genuine and activated for life for sure with this method," revealed the top's author inuyasha62’s on his blog.

Timerstop, 2099 Timerstop ('timer crack' or '2099 crack'), Frankenbuild, KMS Servers, OEM cracks and both brute force and standard keygenerators have received a description and their own rating system. Microsoft itself has confirmed the existence of no less than four of these cracks. Alex Kochis, a senior licensing manager WGA team, acknowledged the fact that Microsoft is aware of the Frankenbuild, OEM crack, the Brute Force Generator and the timer crack. Out of all these four, Microsoft has only tackled the Frankenbuild Vista activation workaround.
