Microsofts stupid black wallpaper thingy.

**polarbear** · 17-11-08, 08:06 PM

Hi All,

I have XP and Windows did an automatic update last night and this morning I get this stupid "You may be a victim of software counterfiting" blah blah blah message, And Im getting the black background as a wallpaper theme, When I change it back it only lasts an hour then goes back to black again, Im sure others know what Im talking about, Anyone know of a fix or patch etc for this latest crap from M$oft, As if Bill doesnt have enough money !!!

Thanks

Try this registry key mate, just double click when you download it and tell me if it works.

Load windows and only apply service pack 2 and nothing else
do not go to microsoft for it

The best thing is the WGA patcher, I've never had a problem with any update since applying it...

PM me and I'll send you a copy, Or if its ok I'll post it here...
