I know plenty of people who have illegal copies of Windows XP. And now they're having problems with it because of Microsoft clamping down on pirated software.

I am and I updated a few months ago with that bullcrap verfication thing microsoft has.
I formatted and tried to update again and guess what? My verification doesn't work anymore.
I hate microsoft. I believe that this recent verification software will cause a change in the way the government lets microsoft handle it's business.

Its almost impossible to tell and you know for sure yours is not legit. The Microsoft WGA program will flag legit systems 5-8% of the time and NOT catch it IF multiple installations are on nearly identical computers

Not me. Not worth it. I don't care to lose my privileges or pay a fine.
Even if you did get away with using it for a while, you could not update.
