Free XP for pirates
Microsoft has launched a new initiative offering a free copy of XP Pro to users with illegal versions IF they can supply the receipt and disk they got their warez version from. The Windows Genuine project is aimed at US users but may spread as the giant steps up validation requirements for its lates downloads. MS hope to use the technique to stamp out counterfeiters.
