Subject: WGA patch for LegitCheckControl.dll

Mohr, 

I am not too sure if this is yet another "WGA LegitCheckControl.dll patch"
around but a similar patch was sent to me by its author called "LanTHruster"
on 28th July, 2005. Check the attachment. 

Patch details
=================================================
This patch completely deactivates WGA control 
(will even remove dhtml NAGs)

- Close all the copies of IE
- Either copy this patch in system32 folder or select LegitCheckControl.dll
file
   i.e. C:\WINDOWS\system32\LegitCheckControl.dll
- Apply patch
- Run Windows Update web service to see if WGA is absent, no reboot required
- Enjoy

If Windows update is not working for you anymore telling you that you have
an illegal XP copy then this patch if for you. 

Tested under XP Pro Eng Sp2
=================================================

- D
