Few days ago, my Windows has been deactivated. I was using an un genuine copy of Windows XP Pro. (Well I've tried Vista on my new semi super computer for a week & simply couldn't take it, I had to have a Windows OS for my games ASAP).
I have installed it on my computer & was planning to purchase the key cause I just like to do it legally.
Unfortunately, all shops where selling Windows Vista "or as I call it Zefta" (Related to Arabic term Zeft, which is bad).

So what happened after SP3 was installed is that it counted down 30 days & then locked.
So I was working on my computer (Running Linux OS as default BTW) & wished to go play some online gaming, So I restarted into my gaming OS (Pointing that Windows is useless in terms of reliability & security) only to discover that Windows has been locked.

I discovered some quite interesting stuff when it comes to activating your Windows the pirate way but I'll not mention it cause am one of the guys who encourages to have a genuine copy. It might seem a lot to pay over a $100 for an OS that will only be used for gaming, but I think it's better than stealing anyways.

So I was going around trying to find a way to override the activation process or at least change my invalid key to a valid key (Hacked), just temporarily to play the game & then I'll have the headache searching for a shop selling Windows XP Pro the next day somewhere here. (Don't blame me nor the shops, but it's Microsoft whom decided to stop their support to XP for their other crappy OS Zefta!)

I then discovered a post that suggested to Open MS Narrator & Open IE from there for Internet browsing & maybe run "My Computer" & view the files.
Well, I took it beyond that. I accidentally discovered that if you try to access the C drive of your computer via IE that Windows will crash its self to the desktop & unlocks the desktop, taskbar & other startup applications.

It was so hilarious that I was laughing like a maniac! It's just simply unbelievable! Microsoft Windows is just so buggy that they even fails to safely secure the OS even if it should be locked.
