Internet Explorer 7 for Pirated Windows

Microsoft has removed the Windows Genuine Advantage validation requirement for installing Internet Explorer 7, Users running pirated or counterfeit copies of Windows XP can now download Internet Explorer 7.

It is about time Microsoft take a good look at their own monopoly tactic that they are so fond of during the 80’s, there are many more alternative brower out in the market that is willing to grab a share from those that can’t migrate from IE6 to IE7, and the biggest winner is non other than Firefox.

IE7’s uptake was dramatic late last year, when it went from about a 3 percent share in October to 18 percent in December, but growth has slowed. Since April, for instance, it has increased its share by four percentage points, almost all of it at the expense of the older IE6.

For those that are still using the Internet Explorer 6 or 7, my advice is, switch to Firefox for a safer and better browsing experience.
