This works great for both legit and non-legit keys!

Three Easy Steps to a better Windows Update Experience:

1. After you have installed the new Windows Genuine Advantage ActiveX control in Internet Explorer select "Tools", "Manage Add-ons".

2. This will bring up the Manage Add-Ons window to allow you to enable or disable any installed module. You have two options to view the modules: Add-ons that currently loaded by Internet Explorer and Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer. Select which ever one lists "Windows Genuine Advantage".

3. Click on "Windows Genuine Advantage" to select it and then click Disable. This will allow you to fully access Windows Update without Microsoft invading your privacy.


NOTE: You might have to try accessing Windows Update first to get "Windows Genuine Advantage" to show up in the list. Regardless, once you disable it, you have full access to the site.

Also, the whole deal boils down to one dll file in windows/system32: LegitCheckControl.dll. I'm sure somebody will hack/crack/modify this dll to always report its a good key.

Enjoy!


Hehe, i've read it also.
It works.
No need for the workaround anymore.

WTF I dont even have a manage addons!


you need to have SP2 installed

Thanks for the info guys/gals. The Manage Add-Ons works. So the 4in1 keygen can no longer generate a valid pid 640 key anymore? Or just harder to generate one? I am asking cause I think maybe in couple of months time who knows Moneysoft might implement more and more crap making harder for us.

I've heard that changing the number 640 to 1 or 64 under "Windows XP Pro. VLK" produces valid keys for Windows Corporate Edition. I haven't test it yet.

The patch for LegitCheckControl.dll is on that blog also. I haven't tested it yet, but you do have to save that DLL somewhere else then go into safe mode and put it in.

You mean changing the pid or the range. If you mean the pid, yes it should be able bypass but after you reboot you will return back to old pid 640.

He he, I'll give it a try asap and report back here.
If that won't work I'll try a legit key that I keep for such cases.

Simple fix:

Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Programs Tab -> Manage Add-ons
Disable 'Windows Genuine..."

Fixed!
