SP2 Will Not Install on Pirated Copies of XP
Contradicting previous statements which spread accross the media, Microsoft have announced that they will still be enforcing their in-built protections against pirated copies of the Windows XP operating system, in the forthcoming service pack 2.
To clarify its position, a Microsoft spokesperson told BetaNews, "Press reports indicating Windows XP Service Pack 2 will install on pirated or illegal copies of Windows XP are not entirely true. Prior to installing, SP2 will check the OS' product ID (PID) against a list of known pirated PIDs. If a PID is found to be invalid, SP2 will not install."
BetaNews confirmed the accuracy of the spokesperson's statement with a source within the company.
"Microsoft's position with SP2 is no different than SP1, so no one should really be surprised that the update might not install on pirated Windows XP versions. Enabling the update for known leaked activation keys could foster more piracy, something Microsoft would want to prevent," said senior Jupiter Research senior analyst Joe Wilcox.
Wilcox noted however, that "it is not clear how many of the Windows XP PCs infected with worms or trojan horses -- software used to spread spam, hide spammers or launch denial of service attacks -- run pirated software. Withholding the update, even for good reason, could contribute to ongoing security problems affecting legitimate Microsoft customers."
Whilst this may come as a dissapointment for users with illegal copies of the operating system, if Service Pack 1 was designed to send a message out to the pirates, Microsofts so called protection is set to be bypassed yet again, given time.
The Service Pack which offers many updates which should have originally shipped with the operating system, such as the premier of a pop-up blocking addition to Internet Explorer, is expected to ship near the end of summar 2004.
