Every time my computer boots up, it prompts me to install the WGA Notification software. (Windows Genuine Advantage) Basically this is spyware by MS. Does anyone know how to disable this prompt. So far it hasn't tampered with any windows functions, but it's hella annoying during the booting process.
I think you can disable the notification by going to accessories, system tools and then scheduled tasks and removing the notification from there. Just a guess though.
Go to your favourite Buccaneer-themed torrent site and type "WGA Crack" and grab/run the one by ChattChitto. If your desktop wallpaper etc have also been disabled (WGA eventually does this if it thinks you have a pirate copy) then you can correct the registry changes using a free program called "Dial a fix"

If it prompts you to install it (via windows update etc) - turn on automatic updates and notify but don't install, wait for an update notification shield, go into custom install, uncheck the update, and tell it to not remind you about the update not installed.
If WGA is warning about counterfeit software, Neversoft already explained the procedure.
QUOTE(epicelite @ May 5 2009, 08:17 PM) I have XP but never got this notification?
Maybe because I
PAID FOR MY FREAKING OS AND DID NOT PIRATE IT!
OS's are the one thing I refuse to pirate.
I've gotten this warning window a dozen times on legal copies of Windows and I've seen pirate copies without any software tricks passing WGA without problems. Yay keygens.
