Peaches Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Windows 7 Ultimate RTM Cracked, Fully Validated (Already?)David MurphyThat didn't take long. It has only been a week since the official Windows 7 RTM announcement by Microsoft, but crackers have already managed to activate and validate the tricked-out Ultimate version of the OS. The hack is nothing new, as it borrows the same techniques used to bypass activation and verification of previous Vista editions.According to Softpedia, crackers somehow obtained a copy of an OEM Windows 7 Ultimate disc from Lenovo. From there, they were able to extract two critical bits of information: Windows 7's OEM-SLP (system-locked pre-installation) product key and the OEM certificate for Windows 7 Ultimate.details pcworld - http://www.pcworld.com/article/169276/wind...ed_already.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
